Those Slix triggers are for 73s not 66s. Have they startedd making 66 triggers?

That is strange. Have you done some strange mod to your 73?

What is .45 SPP brass?

So does that mean if it is 12:00 noon Pacific time they still have some?

I called the number on the website last Monday (April 15) about an order I had placed at EOT. They answered right away and said the bullets would go out on Tuesday. They arrived at my house on Friday (April 19).

Try putting in the old trigger spring. You did not list what mods have been done. Different mainspring? Changed the lifter and carrier springs? Short stroke?

Since you have already ordered the parts you are on the right track. The most likely cause of the problem is the tip of the trigger (sear) rounding its edges. The next most likely is the hammer full cock notch wearing. The least likely problem is the trigger spring, although anything can fail. It is also possible for the hole in the receiver that the firing pin extension rides in to ware but that would take a LOT of rounds. If you do not know what you are doing, do not have the proper stones or hones for the job and do not have a sear jig your chances of making things worse out weight your chances of making things better. You have not provided any good CLEAR photos of any of these parts so any further guesses are just that. SWAGS.

Sounds fair.

Using a vise when work space gets scarce is a good idea. I do not even know where I got it but I used a scrap piece of aluminum as a mount for a press I wanted to use just for decapping. Angle iron or anything rigid will work and the vise swivels so you can get a comfortable angle.

Another old model sizer/decapper was this one from Mec: I removed un-needed linkage and converted one into a dedicated taper crimper for the Roger Rapid taper die.

It has been a long time but my recollection of Brandon Lee's death is that there was a scene where the gun was shown with bullets. They removed the dummies and the bullet from one stayed in the cylinder throat and the blank was loaded behind it.

There would not be bullets in blanks. However, I am sure most of us have seen scenes where the muzzle is pointed at the camera and you can see dummy bullets in the cylinder. I am not going to go back and rewatch hundreds of hours of testimony but my recollection is that there were dummy rounds and these had no primers and had holes drilled in the brass case.
