Howdy All,
A while back I picked up one of those cheap Taurus 605 .357 Mag snub nose revolvers. It has an exposed hammer, and has been a decent shooter no complaints.
I'm getting my CCW soon and thought it might be nice to have a small hammerless .357 for hikes to deal with wildlife. But all the hammerless 357s are pretty expensive.
Then I thought, what if I get the exposed portion of the Taurus' hammer cut off? Would there be any issues with that? Is that something a gunsmith would even do? I assume it would be pretty easy to do/cheap. can't think of a reason it wouldn't work, anyone have thoughts?
Thanks!
