(Edit - additional info) An error that is not too difficult to remedy. I've noted several that WLB had ascribed incorrect details to, and have subsequently had those errors corrected.
BTW, it's a good idea to request your current list from them. It used to be the case that they would do this whenever a change was made but not any more. Request the list and make sure that all the details are correct and that there's nothing there that shouldn't be i.e., you've disposed of something and it's still recorded to you.
A Martini action is not a falling block. It is, in the strict sense of the term, a tilting block, and therefore somewhat unique. The block rotates about a hinge-pin at the upper rear of the block.
A falling block is what you will find on a Ruger #1 / #3 etc. The whole of the block is lowered away from the chamber. Similarly the Hi-wall, Low-wall Winchester actions, and many others.
