scooter123: As I suspected also. He said the notch on the S&W hammer was on the small side relative to other manufacturers and was not to be altered. I may just get the Brownell springs you mentioned but I didn't see them on their website. Hapworth: Agreed! I really like these revolvers...

My gunsmith indeed left the original trigger return springs in an envelope with the cases. Replacing them took less than ten minutes. Now both have four pound pulls in single action. Three would be better but I can live with it especially since both are extremely smooth and predictable with...

I experimented with the M67 before I posted the original note today. It has a lighter aftermarket mainspring. Earlier I installed a set screw in place of the original flat head screw. I tried different tensions and the result came up 2 lbs every time. Putting the original factory spring and...

I had a gunsmith do an action job on these nearly new revolvers some time ago. The trigger pull on both is just a hair over two pounds with no creep. After years of CAS where my revolvers had two and a half pound pulls, I find that this has become my absolute minimum. Is there a simple way...

What is the brand? Fifty would be great.

Anyone? The online stores seem to be out. I wish to have Winchester or 2.082" Starline brass. I will pay cash or can trade brand new .44-40 or .38 spl brass.

I would most like to go to a concert with Alison Krauss and Union Station. That's a dream event. Oh wait a minute... I have two tickets for them at the end of this month at the Rockygrass Festival here in Lyons, Colorado. Here's something really different. If I had a time machine my first...

For every PhD there is an equal and opposite PhD. I know all about Einstein. I went to school and took up time and space. My wife was one of the first in her university to earn a BS in Computer Science. She was hired by IBM right after graduating and spent the next thirty-two years with them.

A BA or BS is just the beginning. It just proves that you have learned how to study. I didn't use my BA in Economics but wouldn't trade the experience for a ton of unfired S&W classics. BTW if anyone is interested in superb and varied college level classes without the exams, take a look at...

Drop down to Buffalo and eat dinner at the Occidental. It is the best restaurant for a hundred miles or more. You might want to take flying lessons and purchase a small plane. Out here we measure road trips in hours not miles. x2 on the Indian battle sites. They are not to be missed.

Bulleit Frontier Whiskey is about as good as it gets.

Go to a Colorado Rockies game. The team sucks but Coors Field is the best park in the Major Leagues. The Cussler Classic Car Museum in Arvada is open Mondays and Tuesdays. If you are a fan of Clive Cusslers novels you will see many of the stunningly restored cars that were featured in the...

Many years ago one of my cats was injured in a fight with a racoon. He had a bite or claw mark on his chest that got infected. The infection became generalized and he died from it.

Two years ago Deb and I were flyfishing the upper Thompson in Rocky Mountain NP. Deb was standing on a sand bar in the middle of the river when a full grown bull came out of the willows next to her. It calmly stood behind her for a full minute. She could have touched it with the tip of her...

Shhhh! That's my safety deposit box you're talking about.
