My Security Six (1974) has a whopping .012" hammer sideplay. I have installed a pair of .004" shims. While my main purpose was to prevent the highly polished hammer from getting scuffed, )) I find that the hammer feel is much improved. It's a very easy modification on a Ruger double action. You only need to apply a bit of gun grease to hold the shims in place. You also need to remember that the shims are there for general disassembly when detail cleaning.
Get out your feeler gauges, you might be as shocked as I was.
