Brutis, Charlie,
Here's a picture of an original highwall half-cock notch.  Maybe it will help you when you reshape yours.

Thanks Old-Win, that helps a lot. The Uberti's are rounded.

You wouldn't by chance have a pic of the full cock notch?

That looks like the half cock notch on the hammer I got with the Taylor&Company double trigger kit.

I had to fit the triggerguard to my frame while the lever and stock fit fine.

Now it fires all types of primers even the ones that had the lite strike on them.
