I don't blame you- not one bit. The '82 sear scares me a bit, too.
I Duracoated mine after purchase, but I stopped the teardown at that point and left the hammer, sear and fire control group in place and just masked them off...

If you're reasonably certain that's the problem, give it a shot- just take a LOT of pictures as you're doing it...if you run into an issue on re-assembly you just put the parts in a ziploc and send them to the smith. No worse off than if you had to pay him to begin with.

This may be helpful if you haven't found it yet, I'm sure there's other info online that would be helpful. There's a lot of knowledge out there, and a lot of helpful folks...
