I noticed that the halfcock on my .36 navy colt was not working all the time and that the cylinder didn't free wheel as it should. I saw a piece of metal sticking out by the trigger as well. I removed the grip and trigger gaurd from the frame and discovered that the trigger and stop spring was broken. I removed the broken spring and ordered a new one from Dixie Gun Works.
My question is, what do I need to be mindful of when reassembling the revolver after I put in the new spring? Will it all just go together naturally or do I have to position trigger or hammer in a specific way. Also, will timing be effected? This is a Pietta revolver.
Thanks for the help,
Don
