That picture doesn't look right, when my Pietta '58 is in the safety notch, the relief in the hammer is about 1/16 clear of the back face of the frame, the hammer cutout.
Your pic, it looks like mine does on the nipple, closed, just a few thou clearance.
Bottom part of your hammer seems to be too short TO engage the safety notch.
How about you slip the hammer onto a nipple then repost. I will either scan or shoot to show what I mean.
Smoke, did you drop a 100 thou when you measured yours? My hammer face is .146. Verniers will do that.
Cheers,
George
