Gun Video Trigger Job: Complete Action Tuning S&W Revolvers Jerry

Best way to smooth the action (which is unnecessary) of any revolver is to dry fire and use live ammo at the range,me specially if we are talking a service weapon. People often mistake the 13 lb trigger pull as a need for smooth an action, it's not. The trigger finger needs exercise and strength build up. The is a reason gun manufactuers out a heavier pull weight on a revolver.

 

I much prefer Frank Glenn, www.glenncustom.com, over Nelson Ford.

+2! Nelson Ford is entirely adequate, Frank Glenn is WORLD CLASS--Really! HTH....Mike S.

 

Frank Glenn (just north of Shea off the 51) was not taking new work last fall related to a medical issue. Have not inquired in 2016. Please let us know what you find out.

Get the video and screw your gun up like so many
others have done.

 

Buster,
I take it your not a fan of this video?
If you have actually seen it and this is so, fine.
But I suspect your comment is based on not watching it.
It explains the action, timing, and how the trigger works which alone is worth viewing it for an owner of a Smith.
It also will give you what to ask a gunsmith for rather than being snowed by BS if you go that route.
19 bucks well spent if you have a revolver made in Springfield. Its filmed by a really nice guy who can run one as fast as I have ever seen.
Im pretty sure he knows what he's talking about.

 

All:
Thanks for the advice. I am familiar with Mr. Glenn as he did many of the trigger jobs on fellow officers revolvers early in our careers when we carried revolvers, but I did not know that he was still around. I will look into it. Take care all.
