Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. And what were the odds. This thread is ten years old. Dunque sei tu l'Italiano che ha fatto il video? Si, il Mundo é piccolo. That's enough Italian. (I speak Spanish and hispano-italiano) I must thank you for this video. It is one of the best on You tube regarding trigger jobs and getting into S&W revolvers. If it had not been for your video, knocking the bare frame grips, and arousing my curiosity as to "Why?" I might have opened it by unscrewing and then prying with a thin blade. I also bought Jerry Miculek's DVD and am waiting to receive the springs.
  2. Hi and Thanks. Let me try to give a bit about our (gun) laws, maybe on the weekend. We, gun-owners of Canada, used to envy you (The USA) your gun laws which, so far, are more permissive than ours. But it looks like there's a major assault on the 2nd A. And we pray that some sanity returns to the US and to stop blaming the object and not the person. We have the equivalents to your Brady (bunch) and Dianne Feinstein and Bloomberg and Cuomo. Later. Regards I have just been reviewing the Guidelines for the site and I see that talking about Political subjects like Gun Control is a no-no. If the site super-moderator or owner Brian or another allows me to do so I shall. But I'd rather not be banned when I have barely begun. :-)
  3. I just received (yesterday) Miculek's DVD about Trigger work for S & W revolvers. Am I ever glad I did. He explains with details, the removal of the side plate and why we must gently whack or tap the frame. I'm still waiting for my set of rebound springs.

  5. Hi This site was recommended from smith-wessonforum from a question I asked about my new S&W 617. Glad I joined, as I found a partial answer and was able to ask a follow-up question. Awaiting a reply. BTW and FYI I'm just a handgun shooter in only .22 Mostly target shooting (In Canada the only two reasons we are allowed handguns is target shooting at approved ranges or collections. If for collection, you can't take the gun to a range. Crazy gun laws.
  6. Do all these instructions (from 2003) still apply to a S&W 617-6 (10-round cylinder)? I'm not a gunsmith and this would be my first foray inside a revolver (of any make/model). I just wouldn't to see things flying off across the room without knowing what they were or where or how to replace them. In this Youtube video it looks pretty straightforward. Would I be biting off more than I can chew? And, BTW, I'm in Canada, so getting to a gunsmith requires paperwork, Government paperwork.
