PS I have tried to research this already, and if this has been exhaused in another thread, forgive me. Feel free to post a link to that one. I have read the article on cylinder and slides website, but I am needing something more specific I believe.
This is exactly what I was hoping for. I have looked all over the internet and not found this list. Thanks dfariswheel.Grease points for Colt DA revolvers are as follows:
On the front and back side of the DA strut on the hammer.
On the single action notch of the hammer and the flat ledge just above it.
On the rear area of the hammer skirt where the rebound lever rebounds the hammer.
On the top, bottom and sear face of the trigger.
On the front edge and outside of the hand.
On the slot inside of the hand where the rebound lever rides.
On the top of the rebound where the lower leg of the mainspring rides.
On the two hooks of the mainspring.
A question for DFW or Coltstar... What is this post about "slicking up v-spring actions" that was mentioned? Is this something I should try, and if so, where is the thread? I went through all of your started threads DFW and didnt see it...Looks like a few of those parts could use a little "smoothing"...eh dfariswheel?
I was cycling some of My Colt and S&W actions yesterday, and I simply cannot believe how buttery smooth My Colt Diamondback's DA pull is, since following the procedure You posted for slickin' up Colt V-spring actions.
I have some basic skills, but am no gunsmith. I have no caliper gauges, although I could purchase one if needed. Curious to know your thoughts if this is something that an amateur who is willing to take their time and be careful should / could attempt successfully.Is this something I should try
