Well, I finally took the plunge and completely disassembled my revolver (taurus 85 ul) for the first time. The only other gun I've ever taken apart completely was my 10/22, which is a breeze.
I ordered a set of wolff springs for it and decided to pull the sideplate off to see how bad it was going to be. I was pleasantly surprised. Other than a few little hang ups, I got it all apart and back together again in about an hour. Cleaned everything up real good and lightly oiled the friction points. Put it all back together again and it feels a little smoother, and best of all, it works!
If anyone has any tips on removing/inserting the trigger return spring, let me know, I almost shot the little post right into my finger; that stung a little. If I didn't have so much trouble posting pics I'd consider doing a walkthrough if there isn't one already.
