Good post and pics.  This should be a sticky note so newbies can see it anytime.

The prospect of taking these things apart-like you have to do to keep them running is extra scary until you've done it a few times. After that, it's amazingly easy.

mec:

You appear to have posted graphics of a pocket .31-caliber or Colt Trapper. Seeing the brass trigger guard raises a question.

Cimmaron, perhaps other vendors, offer a reduced-size version of the Single Action Army. Usually, this is .38 Special, or some such. Will the trigger guard and backstrap -- these are steel, not brass -- fit on the Colt Pocket percussion revolvers?

I queried Cimmaron and obtain no reply. Could mean the question is ridiculous; or they have no idea; or they do not respond to E-mail queries.

would have been nice of me to leave the backstrap and mainspring in the picture - but that's the easy part.  I don't know about the reduced size SAA or other things about interchanageability.  this is a uberti Wells Fargo and basically the same as the 49 pocket model.  I suspect the baby dragoon  back strap would fit too but don't know for sure.

I was able to get to  that site last night, but I can't now.  :(  I don't know if it's my ISP, or what, but it seems I can't get to it quite a bit of the time.   That's a great resource.
