I appreciate the knowledge friend. I will just enjoy it for what it is and if there is any issue in the future I will have it sorted out then. Thanks for your time.

Thank you. This is actually something that sounds logical. I have 3 other smith's 19,36,60 and none of them make this noticeable amount of noise and or feel when rocking the hammer (letting off and on the spring once cocked) after the initial cocking of the gun. I popped the plate off once...

Not prefect but a clean revolver. The issue I am having is when pulling the hammer back for single action. When all...
