Ron, Which Chickering? When? Whose action? Nothing was much "standard" on some of their models, most notably the "quarter" and "parlor" grands w/ brass action parts. Still, I think that things built after WWI were probably more "standard" than those built previously. Hope all is well with you and yours.
