George,
I appreciate your concern for my safety. I will polish up the sides of the hammer and sear and their potential contact points. I bought the spare hammer in case I screw up. I also plan on testing the gun for safety after doing the work by... Taking it to the range and test fire it. I'm also going to load a case into the chamber and briskly strike the butt with a rubber mallet to try and get the hammer to fall (with the safety off). If it falls then out comes the modified hammer. If I can figure out a way to strike the gun from the front end I'll do that too.
I'm not a total neophyte to gunsmithing. I have stripped most of my guns down to their fundamental parts and reassembled them. This will be my second trigger job wherein I will remove material. My first was a very successful job on a MAK 90.
I'd really like some advice from you if you've done trigger work on a 10-22. Thanks.
