I am not referring to the Muribato(sp?) modification to the cylinder release, nor the internal Magna-Trigger system.

I saw this in Combat Handguns, IIRC. It consists of a checkered switch which is installed under the hammer spur, on the 'arch' of the exposed portion of the hammer. When you pull the trigger with it ON, it will stop against the top edge of the frame, just to the rear of the cylinder release. This prevents the hammer from freely arcing back to the point of release. When OFF, it is flush with the sides of the hammer body, allowing normal rotation and release to fall forward.

Can any of you remember the source(s) for this modification? Thanks.

IIRC, that was a "one-of" deal written up by Walt Rauch in "Combat Handguns" magazine...done by, I believe, Phoenix Armory or somebody like that...sorry, don't remember what year/month the mag was, but that'll give you someplace to start....mikey357
