Today I modded 3 of my Navy models.
Caps have a habit of falling under the hammers and this simple mod helps.
Take a round file and on the right side of the hammer opening ( gun in shooting position), round off the sholder of the opening a very little bit.
I could see where the caps were rubbing/hitting the sholder of my one range session, "new" '51 Navy so I did the mod.
It's an old trick often used on .31 caliber revolvers, done forever.
Next I'm going to fill inthe hammer notch that holds on to the "safety pins. This area also picks up cap fragments. A smoothed out dab of JB weld fills it forever.
If you're having the same problems, try these tricks!
