here is that link I mentioned in my previous post on the Albany NY Police statement....................................................... .Troopers PBA: Hey, our members didn’t pass SAFE Posted on April 15, 2013 at 5:28 pm by Casey Seiler, Capitol bureau chief in Guns (Skip...

One often hears that the majority of street cops do support the right of law abiding citizens to protect themselves from crime, and this news release does offer such hope. Also, a few days ago, the NY State police union issued a less supportive statement, simply reminding the citizenry that they...

rc was correct on hammer block/sideplate I dropped the gun off today and was told I will hear in a day or two what he found. He did test it as I suggested, but made no commitment on what was wrong. Yes, the hammer block was in the sideplate, which I did not show a pic of. I used a very small...

Going to gunsmith on Monday I will be taking the S&W to a local gunsmith on Monday, to be checked out. I certainly realize that it is hard to give a diagnosis without actually being able to see the "patient"! I see a few noted that a hammer block is missing.......it has been that way since...

Hello; I have a 1971 vintage SW 15-3 with a 4" bbl. It is in very good overall condition and does lock up tight when tested with hammer dropped. It works fine in double action with no problems seen. The issue is when attempting to fire single action with the hammer cocked back. The position...
