What he said!!!! WD does = water displacing, 40th formula....NOT a lube or protectant!

Another plus for Tom and crew at TK Custom. Great work and great guys to talk to/work with.

I too can strongly recommend Lance at Trigger Shims....Great Christian people. ...and Hondo44 is right. Put that 'smith on the "don't do business with" list. If you only need a few thousands to bring it into spec. Say .003-.009 or so. Shims are a good fix. If much more than .010 I would find...

Cerakote We are in Western North Carolina. P. F. Custom Guns. Factory Certified?Trained CeraKote applicators. Please check out some of Orion's work on the Cerakote website. He has done several revolvers and a ton of Shot guns. Thanks, Have a great weekend: Phil

How about Checkmate in Brooksville, FL? This is hte last number I had for them: (352) 799-5774

parkerizing We have done commercial parkerizing for many years. Manganese is the darker black of the two. Zink phosphate it the correct grey/green WWII and pre-war military finish. WE are in Western North Carolina if you cannot find anyone locally.

Chief 38 has the right advice. I would not recommend a file. I use a fine stone. Polish off the burr and a put a very fine champher around the outer edge of the barrel. It is quite common to have that sharp edge on Smith barrels. We de-burr them all the time.

We are a cerakote factory applicator. We have done a few magnums. Like flundertaker above says. It does get blasted as magnum loads do, but we have not had any blasted off!!! The stuff continues to amaze me!!!

I have to agree on this point. But, I do think, at least in this case...customer monkeyed with it Thanks all: Phil

My my question, is it possible for the yoke's spring/plunger to come out of the screw while the revolver is completely/properly assembled???? I had a customer recently bring in a 625JM. He had the revolver in one hand and the yoke/cylinder in the other. Frame was completely assembled, grips...

canvsbk: Man you are 100% right on that...they can be a nightmare!

I'm with you and tomcatt51. Strain screw has nothing to do with the extractor rod. And .002 would be less than 1/8 of a turn. The average human hair is .006-.008! You say the the ejector/extractor rod is tight (it is a LH thread) We see revolvers in the shop from time to time that won't open...

rule 3 We have done a lot of Smith action jobs too. Both for carry and competition> I shoot a 625 in USPSA competition with a 6.5-7 lb double action pull. (I don't know or care what the SA pull is...hammer is bobbed) It functions 99.9% with Federal Primers about 80% with anything else I have...

NO, from what I have been told over the years the vials are controlled by the NRC. Thus there are only a hand full of companies that can handle and install them. I have used Tooltech in Oxford Michigan several times. If you contact Trijicon they will probably reference you to tooltech.
