Thanks hswee!

Does the sear spring on yours keep spring pressure on the lock frame stop when the hammer is cocked??? Mine does not...In your pic, the lower tang is pressing the frame lock down...but mine has a slight bow in it, and is not pressing against the frame lock...it's flopped upward...

I'll have to take the lock assembly apart and check the hammer cavity...In one of Jack Mitchell's books he mentions burrs in the hammer cavity from improper safety operation...I take this to mean dry firing with & without safety on...or playing with the safety operation while dry firing...

I'll see if I can find another sear spring, too...Just as a precaution...
