Does anyone know if the 1885 Japchesters have a rebounding hammer?

22LR

I ask because of two 1892 and one 1886 Winchesters I have that were made by Miroku have a rebounding hammer. This and the multipiece camming firing pin made for a heavy trigger pull. (until modified) I didn't know if the 1885 in 22LR had a similar "safety" feature.

I solved the problem by purchasing a CPA Stevens with set triggers, a 22lr and 38-55 barrel.
