Keeping with tradition
So it seems every year about three weeks before the Southern my planned shooting iron of choice developes a mechanical issue.
This year, just as in the past two, it is a broken spring.
I do not know what to offically call this piece but it is part of the early single trigger mechanism. It is a very thin flat spring, about 2 thous. thick, and is shaped like a key hole to attach to a screw and a vertical piece pushes against the detent. It functions to put pressure on the rebound block/ counter weight to help it set.
I will call the usuall suspects, Delgrego, Turnbull, Kearcher, etc but any help would be greatly appreciated. I can do this work my self in about 20 minutes if I get the part.
Maybe someone has a diagram that shows this spring/ names it/ to help identify it.
Thanks,
John
