I am considering making changes to my .38Spl snub as part of deciding if I should part with it and replace it with a 3" .357, or make it as close to the gun I want it to be.
The SA on my Astra is actually very nice, but its only any use at the range, as far as I can see. If I get around to using this gun in IDPA competitions, it'll be DA shooting.
SD situations tend to be the same. Time would likely not be on my side. If it were, I would employ it running the other way!!
So to gunsmiths who have done the work and owners who know of or have bought the work, some questions for you about bobbing the hammer:
Thanks

So to gunsmiths who have done the work and owners who know of or have bought the work, some questions for you about bobbing the hammer:
- What are the lesser known disadvantages of bobbing the hammer?
- Can bobbing the hammer affect reliable primer strikes?
- Can a hammer be bobbed in such a way that SA can still be used?
- Do any owners regret having the hammer bobbed?
Thanks
