Default Hey Corey

Corey, got the bullets and lock parts today, Appreciate the sabots!

Ok for the lock, I installed the small hammer which i believe is the one you wanted on the lock, correct?

The main spring, i replaced with the chrome main spring. Thats a very heavy duty spring by the way. Should have no problems with light hammer strikes now.

I also went and replaced a stripped screw that held the bridle on.

I didnt adjust the tumbler, i figured i'd let you adjust that to where you want the trigger pull. I always do a suicide trigger set up but knowing your luck, i'll leave it set up in stiff mode

But if i got that all set up right just let me know.

I'll try some of those sabots in a few days after the 3 day snow storm we're getting right now
