Needham Conversion Hammers

A Needham Conversion hammer is a standard M1863 hammer with modifications.
The hammer is cut in order to enable a wedge to be pinned to the hammer to strike the firing pin.

It should be noted every Needham Conversion uses a M1863 style hammer whether or not the rest of it is a M1861.
