So it appears my right hammer is from a D3, looks to have more engraving than the hammer original to this gun.
Finding a right hammer for a Grade 4 is probably pretty near impossible?? And then being the same engraving ?
Maybe someone here owns serial #13939, that would crazy?

Good luck with that Stan. Maybe someone could rework the hammer to match

The good thing is when they’re both mounted on the gun you can’t see the slight difference between them.

Good point Dean,
the engraving on the side is not noticeable at that point, but the different height of the hammers is obvious and the engraving on the area of the hammer where your thumb lands when cocking is of different size.
