UBERTI no safety hammer ?
« on: October 05, 2012, 11:17:20 PM »
Is there a uberti hammer for the Hartford model that doesn't have the safety on it?
If so,, would it have to have the cam timed ,or would it just be a drop in fit?

Yes there is.  Cimarron has them and possibly VTI as well.  They're not cheap.  Getting a hammer to "drop-in" without fitting would be pure luck, but it can happen.  However, if the safety-hammer you are replacing is old enough, you may also need a new hand and/or trigger.  I think the hole in the hammer that the hand fits into is larger than it used to be.  It's been a while since I looked at those parts.

I was able to remove the hammer block on one of my SAA clones made by Uberti (from Iver Johnson). Not very difficult. But I left it on my other 3 as it wasn't worth the trouble to remove.

I removed the safety's on both of my Uberti Bisleys. They function much better now.

I removed the safety with no problem.
I just don't like the slot in the hammer.
I know it has nothing to do with funtion ,,,,but that slot bothers me just being there.It's just not according to Hoyle ;)

A friend of mine TIG welded the slot so it was filled in, dressed the area and lightly oil blackend the area with a MAP gas torch.  You can not tell it was ever there unless he points it out to you.  I asked if he weakend the steel and with the oil quench he said no.
