In need of springs?
« on: January 27, 2003, 05:26:45 PM »
I have an older model Dan Wesson 357 (15-2VH8). The trigger return spring broke and I have been unable to find a new one. I made one with Brownell's spring wire but the gun locks up in double action with rounds loaded in the cylinder. I think the spring I made is too weak and I would like to make this fine revolver work again. Any ideas? :cry:

Have you tried contacting Dan Wesson Firearms?  www.danwessonfirearms.com

They should have parts for even the older revolvers.

There have been several spring kits offered on ebay lately. Just do a search for "Dan Wesson"  I may be getting one myself just as a spare.
