Does anyone know of an outstanding smith in the central NC area?
Several things I need to have fixed if I can find a reputable smith.
Thanks in Advance

(Need someone who majors in S&W's)
 
A lot of trigger & action jobs are so good that they won't always set off a primer... :eek: :uhoh:

I suggest that you take rcmodel's advise.
 
Thats when you change to Federal primers.

If the proposed use for a handgun is some kind of competition, and the user used his/her own handloads, this remark might make some sense.

But otherwise it doesn't, and I'm not aware of many "gun-games" where a Smith & Wesson model 66 is the favored choice.

I, and most others, have absolutely no use for a handgun that has an action that's so light it's dependent on a particular brand of primers - or any other component.

What, for whatever reason, that one brand isn't available? Or the manufacturer changes their specifications? Or a mainspring takes just enough set so that ignition falls off the knife-edge toward the unreliable side?

Last but not least, a hangfire can leave you with ruined gun if a squip leaves a bullet stuck in the bore, and is followed by a fast "next one."

For most uses, a trigger pull that feels too good to be true, probably is... :uhoh:
 
+1,000!

I agree completely, and would not long own a handgun that could not be made 100% reliable with any brand of primer, or any factory ammo.
