Ti Cylinder?

The other thing that was pointed out to me about the Ty cylinder is cleaning. You need to use a nylon bush to avoid damaging the factory coating.

One of the PC guys explained that is why many have problems. After the amount of use we give a revolver, they find the coatings are cleaned off the inside of the cylinder by those that use stainless brushes.

Regards,

I should add that Mr. Birdsong said to avoid using any steel or brass brush on the Birdsong coating also. He said if you need to use a brush use nylon. So far, just an oily rag and patches have worked fine on the finish.

Just got my 25-2 back from the factory, Ti cylinder installed. So, no brushes other than nylon, check. Test-fire for overheating and ejection sticking, check. Fire up the dremel to bob the hammer spur,..................check. :blink:

I guess if I have to, I have to. I can't go on with the "ball-peen hammer" impact on my primers my current trigger pull delivers. (Pretty much factory stock.)

It's all right, Patrick. Come toward the light.

I get it! :P Come toward the LIGHT> Hammer!

No Pat. Stay there and use CCI primers. If my sources for Federals don't turn around soon I'll be joining you. <_<

Patrick,

Once you lighten your hammer, I can show you some tricks for lightening your powder charge to go along with that. Don't tell the other guys, but it gives you a very soft recoil. ;)

Ken,

I just recently got 10K Federal primers. No shortage here. By the way, has anyone called dibs on your couch for Nationals? :P

No, no one has it reserved, but it's a little over 100 miles from here to the range; that's a tough commute if you ask me. ;)

I'm staying in Tulsa (with in-laws possibly) but I'll ask Mother-In-Law if she would like to take on some boarders. :wacko:
