I want you to understand I'm not a gunsmith by any stretch of the imagination. I will fix my guns when they break down.

As to the work on the hand, others can explain that better than I. But the Colt hand begins to rotate the cylinder with the top part of the hand, then slips back and a "step" on the hand completes rotation. Apparently they built up the hand with weld metal then dressed it back down to conform with specifications.
