Might move this to the 'Smithy forum but thought I would try here first...

I have a .41 Rimfire Colt New Line revolver that was carried by a distant relative to California and back in the later 1800's, and which was carried by my Grandfather in the early 1900's. It's no longer cocking, needs to be taken apart, repaired, and put back into working shape. As an heirloom, it's worth more than gold to me.

Any advice on a VERY reputable blackpowder-era revolver 'smith expert in these things?
