    Model 15-3 reassembly problem

    Ok, here we go... Thanks for the tapping tip with the screwdriver! Total freaking win! Way easier than the stupid dowel thing to get the side plate off. So, here it is as first opened up: A bit closer: As you can see, I did get the hammer lock on properly on the pin. So it wasn't that...

    Model 15-3 reassembly problem

    That is my thinking too. Its not broke. Its simply not assembled correctly. That was never really a fear. From the various descriptions here and on youtube, I suspect its the hammer block (the piece that fell out) as I made a guess as to its correct placement. I will pop the plate off...

    Model 15-3 reassembly problem

    The reason I didn't bang it around was that I was afraid of dislodging delicate trigger pieces as the plate came off. Clearly they were perfectly safe with the plate in place or the recoil would sham them up every round. But I was afraid that some of the pieces could begin to move as the plate...

    Model 15-3 reassembly problem

    The side plate was very stubborn to remove. I took a 1/4" wood dowel and used my belt sander to flatten one end to make a screwdriver like blade that would not harm the bluing. I used that to ease the rear end of the side plate up and out. And yes, the "ONE" piece did fall out :( now that you...

    Model 15-3 reassembly problem

    Correct, neither the hammer nor trigger were removed. I will take detailed photos with side plate removed tonight. I thought it would be needed eventually so I had planned to do so.

    Model 15-3 reassembly problem

    I have had my Savage model 93, my Ruger 10/22, my Remington 1903a3, my Remington 700 and my 1939 Tula Mosin 91/30 completely apart (including the triggers and bolts) and have had no issues with those (though I had decent sized schematics for most which I lack for the 15-3). I have also broken...

    Model 15-3 reassembly problem

    Thank you, and that is an option. But, if I send it to a smith to fix, I learn nothing. I still won't know what went wrong, and its likely it will happen again. I would like to learn from my mistakes and thus prevent making the same mistake again. The best way I know of doing that is to...

    Model 15-3 reassembly problem

    I did not remove the main spring, if you mean the leaf spring inside the cavity between the grips. Also, anyone have a decent sized PDF of the schematic and parts list? Obviously I will need that for proper reference. The PDF I found from S&W has no parts schematic.

    Model 15-3 reassembly problem

    Ok, a couple weeks ago I broke down my 15-3 to completely clean it and convert it to frog lube. AFAIK its not been taken apart since the 70's when my dad last fired it. I removed the side plate to access and treat the trigger action assembly. I thought I noted placement of all parts but...
