I have a nice 52 slide and an experimental 52 in the rough for the government. Im desperate to find out if any grip lowers fit the 52 slide as I want nothing more than to make this into a real gun. I dont have that much longer in my life and I really want it complete so it or both can be passed...

Thats what I did.It just feels crunchy now when I pull the trigger but maybe something else is sticking. my hammer is a little wonky because the hole for the pin is worn and everyone just about filed down the hammer so it would be easy to pull out and not get caught on holster, pants, etc... so...

I cant post a picture of mine cause it still isn't right so I left it out till I can get someone that has a pre 36 from 56-57' so they can take a closeup pic. Thats all I need to figure it out. I squeezed it in, but it is very gritty when I pull the trigger so I think its wrong. I bought a...

no cause the spring in vectored or powered to pull inward not outward so it wouldnt go up. It would break it. Ive been looking at the only 2 other forum questions people wrote about the same issue and problem. It looks like I might have it right. I typed in cylinder stop torsion spring and it...

yes thats it

yes it does. Its just like a clothes pin spring with 2 bent ends one is bent 2x like the ens has another 32nd of an inch bend on the end of it. The job of it is to keep the pressure on the cylinder stop keeping it into the cylinder. There is usually just a regular small coil spring with a pin in...

Hello, I know there are some serious collectors out there who will understand what Im talking about. I needed to do a thorough cleaning on a Pre 36 from 1956-57 and it doesn't have the typical cylinder stop spring and pin it has a double bent torsion spring. I have tried to figure out the...

can anyone tell me the orientation of the stupid unusual torsion spring for a cylinder stop spring in a pre model 36 from 1956. Its not a coil spring and its killing me. I tried finding it everywhere no luck. please....

sell or trade it to me Im in Maine. Let me know if you have any interest. Thank you
