Of course, the entire inside of the action was honed and polished to further enhance the trigger pull.
Here are a few pics of a bobbed and lightened stock hammer on a S&W 625. What a difference in trigger pull from how it came from the box. The revolver is a joy to shoot now.
The easier way to do what I did is to just throw money at
Apex Tactical for their excellent S&W hammers and spring sets.
The red marks are from a permanent marker I was using during fitting. Failed to do a complete job of removing it when I was done.
That is an absolutely gorgeous hammer job!
My competition 686 had an Apex Level IV ICORE action job and it was 5# on the money. I could do one a bit smoother but not quite as light.
What if this whole crusade's a charade?
And behind it all there's a price to be paid
For the blood which we dine
Justified in the name of the holy and the divine…
