Next time I take apart a revolver that has a lot of caked up sweat residue inside it, acting a bit like loc-tite, I will disassemble inside a clear plastic bag.
Now that my disclaimer is out of the way, I have a model 64-5. I removed the rebound slide and the spring and slide smacked into my cupped hand I was shielding it with; however, if I had a rebound slide pin, it is probably lodged into my garage door.
The Gun Digest Book of Firearms Assembly/Disassembly, Part II: Revolvers, shows I should be using the teardown for the model 29. It says "Remove the spring from the rear of the rebound slide, and
take care not to lose the trigger limit pin inside of it.
This is a double action only revolver. Did I originally have one or can I stop looking for it? This thread
opinion on trigger stops just confused me a bit. I have no problem filing down an old drill bit to fit if I am supposed to have one.
Thanks! Matt
