	Hi, I have a Stevens 1894 Favorite. It MAY be a No. 17, but I am not absolutely sure on that. I was playing around with it the other day. It seemed like if I put the hammer on half cock, I could not put the hammer back down by pulling the trigger as I try lowering the hammer. I had to cock it all the way, then lower the hammer fully from there. Is that normal operation for a Favorite of this time period, or have I uncovered a fault with my specific rifle? Thanks, Danny

	Normal. The half-cock notch is very deep. Does operating the lever put the hammer to half-cock?
