Where did you get the springs? I've got a few Taurus revolvers on my list, I should probably look into what's available and what the inside of them look like beforehand.Just a quick update. I decided to change out the springs and grips yesterday.
The newest Taurus j-frames are apparently a little different from my older ones.
The grip frames are the same, but the grip is held on by one pin, instead of a screw and a pin. The older boot grips that I want to use will fit, but I'll have to drill a couple of shallow holes for the new pin location. Annoying that they chose to do this to save 1.5 cents per gun or something.
The hammer spring was easy to change out. The DA trigger went from pretty bad to pretty good in ten minutes. Apparently there's something new about the trigger springs, too, so I'll read up on that before I change it out.
This will probably go to the range with me most of the time. The finish is ugly, but all it needed was $10 worth of springs to have a decent trigger. It'll be completely acceptable for snubby practice.
