So I managed to smoosh the pawl spring between the grip frame and receiver on my Old Army. It still works but is a bit worse for wear. Fortunately this is a really common spring and easy to come by.
Has anyone made a modification to make this less likely to happen...besides getting someone with better eyes to do it?
I was thinking about cutting the smooshed spring down enough to put a 2nd plunger on it....one at both ends. If it would fit, there would be no way to cock the spring when putting the grip-frame on.
Just a thought...
