1, 4, 7 and 8 appear to be long action type. 2 and 10 are standard “hi-speed” postwar, and 5 a Target version. Not sure about the other hammers or the triggers.

 

[Hondo44]

1, 7, & 8, post war long action

2, 1st short action, fixed sight models

3, 6, & 9, N frame 2" high, 1st short action, standard target med. width spur to MIM hammers

4, pre war long action

5, 1st short action, target models

10, post war 1st short action standard fixed sight models to MIM hammers

11, I and J post ~ 1959 standard, using coil spring and forked spring strut

12, & 13, Serrated triggers post August 14, 1923, target models NEED TO SEE OTHER SIDE, could be early for single pin hand connection, or later for 2 pin hand connection change

Ah, 4 doesn’t have the notch for the later hammer block.

If any of the triggers of hammers have patent information stamped on them they would be from an N or k frame made between 1926 and WWII.

#s 2 and 10 are often called "Fish hook" hammers due to the shape of the hammer spur, in use on many of the pre-Model numbered K-frames from the later 40s to later 50s.

Would #4 be for a Victory .38 special revolver?
