Smoke,

Does that work with a CPA?

Sorry, out of town for the Colorado show and just now recovered and catching up.

The Russ Weber style seater works with the CPA as the hammer is already low enough for the tool to clear.

On a related note, I had a discussion with a gunsmith at CGCA and mentioned the problems with the original Stevens.  He said his solution was to solder a piece in the half cock notch on the hammer, which caused it to rotate the spur back further, giving it clearance for a Weber seater.

How do we know that humanity isn't just a race of tame primates, domesticated by dogs to serve their purposes?
