Does anyone know where I can get that tiny tiny little spring on the 442 hammer that keeps pressure on the plastic piece ? Can't believe I didn't work on it inside a plastic bag. Thanks for any help.

Don't know if the S&W plant would have/ship that. Bolsa Gunsmithing is a S&W warranty station in California. Google them for their phone # and see if they would ship it to you. Do you have an exploded drawing so you can ID the part by # for whomever you call?
Can you describe it better, or supply pic of area. I have a cylinder bolt spring and detent from a 638 if we are talking about the same thing? (I don't think we are).
I made the same kind of mistake, but I'm much better now since they changed my medication!
FYI: S&W did send me those parts no problem when I called them. I know sometimes it is an issue, gunsmith wise, but If you talk to them like you know what you are doing, they will almost always send the parts gratis.
I got curious and took down my 442-1. The sear is definitely steel and not plastic. It's MIM and sure looks like plastic. The mainspring rod swivel is the only plastic piece.
