Polish only a Mother could love II/686 Porn

1. Did you polish the inside of the bore/cylinder chambers? -Would this mess them up?

No! Answered later in #5

2. Did you polish the ejector rod/yoke-crane?

Only a couple of times, more to get crud off than shine on.

3. Did you polish the underside of the top strap, breach plate(?) and under the cylinder?

Same as above.

4. Did you remove the grip and polish the entire butt of the gun?

I was polishing when I had Hogue monos on it so when I did take off the grips it was more to get the backstrap or just under the edges where crud would collect.

5. To simplify the Questions: What do I not polish with Mothers?

Like Q1, nothing with 0.02" tolerances that can hurt you. Sides, outside of barrel, backstrap, etc. are fine. Not the cylinder face, cone, charge holes, etc. On another site someone with a new S&W 500 wanted to know if he should polish his cylinder face, I said no there too, I cannot even imagine a 500 with incorrect gapping.

Thanks you all!

YES! but I can't make it, I work and then have plans to buy 7 pounds of BBQ and have dinner with the ex-fiance. Its both of our Birthdays Thurs. Thanks for the invite though, if I'm ever available I'm there!

Speaking of range time though I took my 226 out again this afternoon with the new CT Grips....its getting scary! Is it legal in Germany to marry a SIG yet? 100 trouble free rounds, i'm finally up to 500 and I think its broken in...the slide rattles, things sound like they're wiggling around in the frame, and its more accurate and reliable than ever, sounds like a service pistol. Once I add that solid guide rod its gonna be Sweeet.

Now its also my first time shooting with lasers, first off, they are just nice grips, a little large, but that squishy back strap is nice, and after putting in 15 rounds into a 3"x2" blue square at 12 yards (I know, not great, but good for me, I'm still practicing.) with both iron and laser sighting I can see their advantages and disadvantages. The thing I probably liked best was having both eyes open to take a laser guided shot, to have full field of vision could be beneficial in a SD situation.

Have fun Sunday, I will try and catch you next time,

Thank you mikey357,

As for the trigger I'm 99% sure it is, the only reason for doubt is I bought it brand new and then sent it right to S&W for a master revolver trigger job. I think they just work on the trigger, but cannot guarantee its the exact same one that came with it from the factory or what they might have done to it.

Also yes it is a dash-6, it has an internal lock that has never budged, and I love it.

I had no idea! But thanks for the info, any changes on the hammer that you can tell?

^ Nice, kinds has that Satin Stainless look!

The trigger job is amazing, the DA is lighter and the SA is light and crisp. The ONLY downside to having the trigger job done is if you happen to shortstroke the trigger, and not let it fly forward, the action doesn't properly reset and the hammer just bobs up and down as the cylinder turns.

If you let the trigger reset, its great, so like on a dedicated EDC I would say no for SD applications, as a paper punching sometimes backpacking gun its great.

Is it just the angle of that pic or are Colt Python Hammer HUGE?

Nice pics jetman!
