New 1887
« on: July 23, 2015, 12:00:10 AM »
Well, I went back to the gun shop today and picked up an 87.  Feeling pretty good, and will get pics up as soon as possible.  It is a clone, and I anticipate some things will need to be tuned up.  The only major thing I'm seeing so far is the hammer is EXTREMELY heavy.  As in, if you don't squeeze the trigger a mite, it won't cock.  What is the problem here?  Sear too long?  Any advice is appreciated.  Pictures tomorrow or over the weekend.
