I just got a bobbed hammer from Numrich for my Security Six and I cannot get the gun to run with it. The new hammer fits in the gun just fine, and I can run the action without the mainspring, but when I reinstall the mainspring, I cannot pull the trigger. It then takes some time of playing with the gun to get the hammer back sufficiently to be able to remove the mainspring and then remove the bobbed hammer.
I have changed out the hammers in my other Security Six and two Speed Sixes without any problems at all and thought that these were drop-in parts that did not need any gunsmithing. Was I just lucky with these three other guns?
This particular Security Six is older than my other one (it has no warning on the barrel and has a very high ridge for the front sight) but otherwise seems identical to it.
I'd appreciate any advice anyone can give me!
