HSc not working correctly

[Warbird]

I am glad you got it to work.  They probably sent you a part from the WWII model.

That was my initial guess but I couldn't confirm since I don't own a WWII model. Maybe they just made them beefier back then.

Just an update on the gun, the slide stop works and no longer slams shuts. I did have an issue at the range where the trigger just kept dying on me. I needed like 100 lbs just to shoot the damn thing. As it turned out the trigger bar spring jumped out of place and so did the trigger bar. I got it working again (its at a normal trigger pull) but kinda cleaned it up and threw it in a corner. Its a cool gun and all but jeez these things are touchy.

I'm certainly glad to be of help to you in this situation.  You showed a great deal of patience as we walked through the fix.  I guess you did not need a gunsmith after all.

If you ever want to dust it off and work on it again, you might want to consider exchanging the Barrel and Recoil Spring with a .32 caliber.  It's much more fun to shoot and a lot less wear and tear on your HSc.  Just be sure it's from the same vintage as your gun.  WWII Barrels do not always fit properly with the Frame.

JD,

Congratulations on the diagnosis and repair.  Good call!
