Strolling through Gonebroker... I come across an obviously scarce part:
http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=492032596
Seller describes it as a new, never installed complete hammer assembly for a S&W Registered Magnum.
He listed it for 7 days with no reserve... but if you wish to buy, bidding opens at $ 995.
Seems ludicrous, but then again, I am really not sure where you go to find even a used one, let alone a NOS piece.
As I am unfamiliar with the innards of S&W revolvers of this era, my first question to you guys is probably obvious: is the hammer assembly from a Registered Magnum different from the many other similar S&W revolvers of the era such as the Triple Lock and descendants or the .38-44 Heavy Duty?
Next question if the above answer is "no" is: how would anyone know it is absolutely for a Registered Magnum?
