Can anyone tell me if the factory hammer spring is heavier on the s&s j frames, with the frame mounted firing pins, than the ones with the hammer mounted pins? If I am correct the ones with the hammer mounted firing pins had a 8.5 lb. factory spring. The ones with the frame mounted firing pins seem to have a much stronger trigger pull, even when the rebound spring is lightened up, which leads me to believe the hammer spring is heavier than 8.5 lb. Does anyone know if changing the hammer spring to an 8 lb. Wolf, in the frame mounted guns effects their reliability?
