extreme SIMPLICITY, STRENTH and DURABIL¬ 
ITY of their New Patent “SIMPLEX” Breech loader

its mechanical soundness so thorough, und the 
strength and simplicity of the action so great, that 
W. & P. feel sure it will supercede all the complicated 
and manifold grips now in use, its one powerful grip 
being far stronger than any donble, treble or quadruple 
grip now used. In this new action LEVER and GRIP 
ARE ONE SOLID PIECE OF STEEL and the AN¬ 
GLE of the BODY is left in its ENTIRE STRENGTH.
