Anvil 106: Whitneyville/Kennedy Reconfiguration
🕑 Added 2021-11-12 13:16:45 +0000 UTCThis is a long one. 5 shop video sessions to get back to the point where it was worn out, and discarded long ago. Of significance is the geometry involved in stoning the trigger and hammer, and how little force is actually needed to do this. We have resisted the "opportunity" to show a trigger job prior to now out of apprehension that this will be screwed up, and I will get blamed......
Full disclosure is the fact that there is a bunch of labor in this thing, and is nowhere near done. The amount of labor necessary to recover a project like this is staggering, and we have as yet found a way to convey this fact. Again, like the pigstick, we had twice this amount of video shot. Much of it was redundant and said the same thing over again. Eventually, an editing decision was made to cut off the production to get content out in the open.
Know this is not the last time patrons will see this project, as a full mag dump, well, MUST. BE. PERFORMED. thanks

Life takes time! In the middle of two project fails that are currently in safe jail while I decide how to reset. Hang in there.

The alchemy of video editing - converting weeks of angst into minutes of delight! A joy. Thankyou.

where do you get those tiny hammers?
Damn straight, tomahawk throw...
Another great video. No to figure out what to do with the rest of my day.

I bought a trigger stone set from Brownells a while ago, but it is a cheap one and not very involved. All I use it for is to knock any coating off the bearing surfaces and to make them mirror smooth. I am not comfortable with reforming sear angles or anything like that. I can totally understand why you would be reluctant to present a video on trigger stoning.

Must be a labor of love 'cause otherwise you'd have slung it a whole lot farther ;)
