    Colt revolvers

    Hello
    If you have one of the above with a spring detent holding the yoke,be aware if you remove the yoke the detent and spring may not stay attached to the frame and may rattle around on your garage floor.
    You're welcome.

    When you have found all the bits you will need to make a hollow punch to stake the detent ball back in place, or better still, get an S&W!

    Yep, very nicely made, overpriced, and the action stacks as the trigger is pulled. They are almost as good as the S&W 586/686 at half the price.
