Really interesting swivel gun.  I've never seen one buy this maker.

I assume that the front trigger is the cocking trigger for the rear main trigger. I have seen some thing similar on a rifle by Buckley.

tim,you have quite the collection.......

Frank,... I agree, there are a number of interesting aspects of this rifle if you look close. I can post another D. Rose if this one generates the interest.

Dave,...This trigger assembly is one piece. In the photo the trigger is in the pulled position. From the center position you can rock it forward with the hammer cocked to "set" the trigger.

Lew,...I hope these postings have been enjoyed. My hat is off to this site, its membership and the folks who take the time to run it!

I am amazed by the talent that frequents this site. I have gained and gaining fast a new (for me) appreciation for Contemporary Longrifles and their makers. tim

How does it release and lock for rotating the barrels?

Bruce,...The trigger guard is spring loaded to the forward position and  retracts about 3/16"  If you look at the trigger guard photo in part two you can see where the rear screw acts as a stop. tim
