Gunsmithing and diagrams? Empty Gunsmithing and diagrams?

Post  Fight Designer Thu Sep 04, 2008 3:52 pm

Anybody found a good source for instructions, parts diagrams, etc? Maybe we need to start an archive. I'm sure I'm not the only person who has bought used blank guns off ebay and occasionally had to do repairs. Most recently, was trying to switch out the grips on a kimar .22 single-action revolver and had issues... spring was out of place, moved it and something further inside made a noise and then some parts basically fell out... as far as I know nothing's broken, but these are a pain to get into and figure out. Don't come apart as readily and thorougly as the Colt Pythons or Kimar starter pistols, both of which I've also had to dissect on occasion...

I'm assuming that taking any of these to real gunsmiths would cost more than the darn things cost originally, so I'm stuck fiddling with it myself...

For what it's worth, the folks at Kimar emailed me back within a week. Great service!
