I have a nice Colt Detective Special that I use for pocket/deep cover/backup type stuff. I've had the hammer spur removed to prevent snagging and to "discourage" cocking the hammer and installed a set of Eagle "secret service" grips. Similar to these (on a S&W J-Frame):
I remember seeing someone who specialized in "customizing" the DS. Things that I'm thinking about...
1. Re-finish the entire gun. Something attractive and durable. (The original blue finish is not great for sweaty deep cover use and it's showing.)
2. Have a tritium bead installed into the front site ramp.
3. Smoothing out the DA trigger a bit (not too much).
Any suggestions?
I remember seeing a feature in one of the gun mags featuring a "customized" DS. It was '96-98 ish. The article was a feature for the customizer, so any of you archivists... Get out those back issues...
Thanks!
