Painted Mohawk SASS 77785 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Howdy Fitting low profile hammers is very popular..my question is if you heat & bend the factory hammers to achieve a similar result is this legal or considered an illegal modification ? I did this to a spare pair that I have..works well & a lot cheaper !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt. R. Hugh Kidnme Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 What Noz said. Pretty sure there were forges capable of this style work in the Old West. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
War Grizzly Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Just thinking of this very thing today. I do my own short stroke mod for my rugers and normally use a sbh hammer. This has left me with a pile of vaquero hammers. The handbook does say we can reprofile hammers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Whiskers Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 It's legal. I shoot 4 open top conversions as a Duelist. I had my gunsmith lower the hammers on all 4 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
