Duty/Carry Spring Kit for J-Frame Revolvers
Now the trigger is easy. But I would like a gun with less recoil.
I would like to add a S&W .22 4-inch revolver for target practice. Less recoil and cheaper, more available ammo. But I understand a .22's trigger is even harder because it has to fire a rimfire cartridge. So a spring kit would be even more important.
But the Apex link says their spring kit is:
"For Use In These Guns
For use in all modern centerfire J-Frame revolvers manufactured by Smith & Wesson ..."
So I would be interested in a spring kit that works for the rimfire .22.

Link I stated above, I prefer the stock hammer spring to ensure good ignition with all ammo brands, and don't go too light on the rebound spring or the trigger return can be too slow or not work at all. I find it best to break in a new gun first to smooth it out before experimenting.
