Having owned and shot my Williams Shooters Supply bisleys for awhile now, I decided to finally install Wolff reduced power mainsprings and trigger springs in both of them (.45 Colt and .41 Mag). As we gunsmith experts know, there is one bottom frame screw that is longer than the other(s); and, we know that it's there to engage the cut-out in the pin that holds the hammer in place. To my surprise, on one gun, the longer screw was on the left (when pointing the gun away from the expert) and on the other gun, the long screw was on the right side. Of course, this made me disassemble them both again to be sure I wasn't hallucinating (again). Nope, one was on the left and one was on the right and in each case, the notch in the hammer pin was (of course) appropriately above the screw as it should be. So I made an expert ASSUMPTION that the hammer pin and the screw can, indeed, be placed on either side without incident. Just curious how many others have come across this 'phenomenon' ? Please remember what your father said about only saying 'positive' things or nothing at all ))))
