well as to "wrong parts" or an improper install. those are horses of a different color.............altering the lock work shouldn't have to be considered..yes, if maybe this was the issue from the onset ( factory defecive) and the reason "WHY" the owner sold the gun ,then needs to be addressd......but as you say, if you "feel" its too light, most likely it is, and as said by Flatgate, I too use ONLY stock, factory parts.....
now you paid a smith to make a repair and it still "misfires" ,he should stand behind his work....you send it off to another and the "pot will continue to grow...." I'd contact him, and give him a chance to make it right, tell him it feels "too light"....we have no clue how he came up with the pin needed replacement, we didn't "see it"...did he give you back the "old pin"??? hope so,or he pulled a short dip stick trick on you........
Some guns are funny when one tries to "look-see" just where and how much, the pin actually protrudes, and we just push on the rear of the pin, ,look at the protrusion, how much is out, when pushed all the way forward, these pins are mounted in the frame , with a small spring, and impact drives them further out, than just holding the hammer "down" ( it rebounds...) if this "play" ( difference in protrusion) wasn't there, you'd have the pin "hanging up" on case rims or high primers, etc.....
wish you were nearby here, it would be done already.....................
But its easy for ANY of us to "second guess" anothers work, with out seeing it in the first place, would'nt be the first Dr to remove a perfectly good organ. :roll:
my bet, change the mainspring..................
