Nelson Ford on K Frame Action Work Part 1: Hammer Spring Weight and Cylinder Alignment

There are a lot of things to cover when working towards a smooth action on a Smith and Wesson revolver.

In this video we go over two aspects of action work, adjusting the hammer spring to get the required weight to ignite primers, and aligning the cylinder to spin freely and allow for a smooth action.
