What's a super commanche? I thought that was a Llama revolver, but must not be in that chambering.

Well NOBADE is really hadn't aheard of them either. The Commanche was a 357 mag at least that's what the old and very porous brain seems to remember.. With that chambering and a 10 inch barrel I assumed it to be one of the hinge action singles being introduced.. Seems everyone's got one now..

If I remember right the super comache is a single action six shot revolver. they look a little funny because of how long the cylinder is. there an inexpensive snake gun. pretty popular around here. even though we don't have alot of snakes. As for the trigger. I would find a schematic of the gun and take it apart then use a polishing wheel and a dremel tool with some metal polish. buff up the trigger group and that might be enouph to help with your problem. If your not comfortable with that most any gunsmith can do the job at a relatively low price.

I saw one in a magazine yesterday. Gunnut is right, it's a tip up single shot pistol. As for the trigger, any competent gunsmith should be able to improve it at least to a point. If they can fix an NEF they ought to be able to do one of these. As for using a buffing wheel on trigger parts, please don't do this. There is a reason those parts have crisp, sharp edges. If you buff them they don't any more. Use the correct stones properly, not a buffer. (Though I get to repair a lot of triggers that people have done this to. It is a money maker if I can get the correct parts.)

Aamen NOBADE!!!  A dremel is a very usefull tool but the chances for disaster with trigger components are staggering!! I used shape Arkansas stones for years along with super fine sand papers(water proof-1000/1500 grit) on a piece of plate glass  for years but tried a set of the precision ground ceramics from Brownells.,.they are wonderful.. Don't require the oil and I believe they cut faster and leave a smoother finish to boot!! Of course the reall concern is to keep the angles correct and that can sometimes be a trick! Take the break action a local smith. It shouldn't be that expensive.
