Abstract

A hammer strut support (150, 156, 160, 162, 166) in a firearm which supports or aligns a free end (134) of a pivotally mounted hammer strut (116), and physically blocks it from becoming lodged in a position, typically under a crosspin (120) such as a sear spring stop pin, that would preclude subsequent proper reassembly of firearm, unless un-lodged and properly repositioned. It is sandwiched in, and may also envelop, firearm structure. Upper surface (154) of hammer strut support may also have a guide channel (164) to align hammer strut (116).
