Hi folks, Happy Fathers Day to all the dads' out there.
This may well be my first post here, but I have been a dedicated "lurker". I have been actually sitting in the very front row for some time now.
This forum is one of the best of it's kind, and has provided me with a lot of information about my BP Revolvers. Everything has gone really well until I broke a Mainspring in my 1860 Army a couple weeks back.
I ordered 3 Pietta mainsprings from VTI, but they were out, and offered a ASM Mainspring for a temporary replacement. Well, I replaced the spring...it was quite simple, and straight forward. Everything fell right into place. However, it is now out of time. When I cock the pistol the hammer lines up on the safety pin between the cylinders.
What did I do wrong??? :banghead:
Any, and all advise would be greatly appreciated.
Respectfully, Russ
