To clarify: if the hammer is at full cock and for whatever reason it is impossible to lower the hammer slowly (e.g. no hammer spur) all you have to do is swing out the cylinder and pull the trigger. Very simple, very safe for you and the gun.

Uh, yes you can. Its right in front of me. I've had the gun for years, I think I know how it functions. Every other one I've had functions in exactly the same manner. If you don't know what you're talking about, please dont annoy the rest of us.

You might be able to get an old S&W 38 frame and build yourself one, it might take some time to acquire all the parts (cyl, barrel, ejector and lockwork) but building your own gun can be really fun (if not a little frustrating sometimes!). Just something to think about...

Wow, haven't been around here for a while! Anyway, I thought I'd pose a little question to the forum. Right now I have a second series Colt Detective special that has turned into my primary carry piece. Not that it's my preferred carry weapon, but it is the one that's on me most of the time...

Re: No, it hasn't been that humid and the ammo was 1oz Federal Wingshoks No. 6, the expensive pheasant load stuff. This is pissing me off the more I think about it.

A couple of months ago, I bought a Remington 870 20ga. So far the gun has been good. That was until this last weekend. Well, I took it quail hunting. Now, I have pits in the interior of my barrel, not many, or large ones, but pits none the less. I clean my guns religiously, usually right after...
