Interesting the beautiful lever in the above photo looks to have a patent pending stamp, wonder who held the patent?

I am doing some on the Pope Jersey City books and I want to include a chapter on Singer as well as Mann and Elliot. All bet one Singer I have seen has been on Hi-walls. Still trying to wrap up the Stevens Pope books.

Just an educated guess, Joseph Singer applied for the patent!!!

Here is a Singer Hi-wall with a Schoyen F/M barrel. Not the odd trigger guard and the top quality palm rest.

Was the lever protrusion below the set trigger meant as a place to rest your trigger finger till ready to shoot??

Protrusion? Not sure what you are referring to.
Each digit has a place on the lever. The index finger on the trigger if you have one and the rest line up like little puppies in a row below it. Excellent lever for shooting from the standing position. Can be rather awkward to use if it interferes with the palm rest.
A blind squirrel runs into a tree every once in a while.

It almost appears that the piece very close to the tip of the trigger might act as an overtravel stop?

I have also noticed a thin wire adjacent to the trigger that acts as a rest, and to give more control of the trigger finger. Don't recall if it was on a Singer or Bremer ?
