I know, I know... I'm going to go pick up that shop manual for S&W revolvers by Kuen.... something or another. That'll answer my question I'm sure. But I am hoping that for tonight, someone can answer my question.
I took my model 13 apart to measure the trigger width so that I could order a wider, smooth one. It is back together and is quite simple in operation. However, there is one part I am having trouble with. It is the last peice you put in before putting the sise plate back on. It's black, with a loop on one end and a bent bar at the other. It ridesin a slot in the side plate and appears to be some sort of hammer block.
Can anyone tell me this piece's purpose? When it is in (and I may have it in wrong, but I don't know how I could) the trigger return has a hitch in it and I can make it hang if I really try. With it out, the trigger is fine. I can't see the purpose for it and thought about leaving it out, but having leftover parts when reassemlying a firearm tends to make one nervous.
So anyone know what this is?
Thanks,
Kilgor
