610 Trigger

[Makicjf]

Howdy,

              In trying to decide if I want to shoot my 610 or 625 in L6 at the IRC, I decided to smooth up my 610, add The Bang springs, apex pin etc.  When I removed the trigger, the trigger post came out with the assembly.  I thought (wrongly?) this was normal, just a variance in design, as on the 610  the hand spring is pinned, on the 625 it is not.  I polished, changed the rebound spring and put it all back together... the pull would change, be hard to start, then be perfect; sometimes it would firmly engage the single action sear, and other times firm thumb pressure on the hammer would allow the hammer to drop.  I took it apart, cleaned everything, and reassembled for the same result.  After three more attempts ( I'm slow to learn) it dawned on me the trigger might be moving do to the "floating" trigger pin/post.  I took the guts out of the 610 and put them in my 625 and they functioned perfectly.  

   I'm pretty sure the trigger pin is supposed to be a post:  did S&W ever make a 610 where the trigger post was a pin that fit into a small hole?

I will have to check my 610-3 as I've only had the hammer removed to install a Apex DAO hammer and haven't messed with the trigger .I did have S&W install a new fluted cylinder to replace the huge unfluted cylinder (that it came with from factory) and that improved my trigger pull more than anything I've done besides changing springs.

The hammer and trigger pivot pins on all S&W revos are part of the frame. If not solidly fixed, then they are broken off. Need to send the gun to S&W to get that fixed.

                     Thanks!  That's what I thought.  I was on hold earlier, but had to go .  I'll call again in a bit.

Thanks Again!

Any luck on getting your 610 fixed?

It went to the mother ship about 10 days ago.  I'd guess they are working on it.
