24-5 no Transfer Bar + 1lb 5oz SA Trigger? - Fixed the problem

"Range guns" don't need a hammer block?
I learned something today- it is impossible to drop a "range gun".
I did not know that.

If your pull weight estimates are correct, the gun will not be reliable. Actually, it may not fire at all.

The altered springs, and the removal of the hammer block indicate that whoever worked on the internals was unfamiliar, untrained, and unqualified. A potentially dangerous situation for sure.

You know, Smith & Wesson doesn't add these parts for nothing! Same with the proper rebound spring and mainspring tension. This fetish of having super light trigger pulls is astounding to me and really doesn't add to better accuracy or performance. If anything it makes the gun unsafe and increases the chance of a misfires.

I used to chase the perfect trigger pull and although I believe you can get some improvement without effecting reliability. I figured out a better trigger puller with a stock trigger beats a mediocre trigger puller with a light trigger.

I was at the gunsmith today shooting the bull ... think I will call Wolf on Monday and just replace all the springs ... have the local gunsmith put all together.

I would drive to San Antonio and drop it off with Alex at Ten Ring Precision.

Update ... I ordered a rebound spring, main spring and a hammer block. I also orderd the Gunsmither S&W Spring tool (VERY NICE) ... was able to swap out the main spring and the trigger rebound spring and add the hammer block no problem.

The double-action is where it should be at about 12 lbs. The Single Action is a bit "sticky" and weighs in at 5 Pounds 9 Oz. I notice to get it into single-action, I pull back and have to "push" it into full cock. Hoping that works itself out with repeated cycling and shooting.

Your "sticky" single action and the fact that you have to 'push' the hammer into SA may indicate long ratchets.
If you pull back hard on the trigger in SA when dry firing, does the trigger ever feel sluggish when it returns, or hang up rearward?
