The little Smith and Wesson Airweight revolvers have a lot going for them. Generally speaking, a good trigger isn't one of them. Yes I'm particular in my triggers but a smoother, lighter pull on your Airweight can equate in better accuracy and more enjoyable shooting. Here we check in again with Terry G of Impact Guns to get a trigger job on the S&W 638 Bodyguard. I show lots of the details as Terry stones the parts and discusses the Smith lockwork on this gun (fascinating by itself). Be sure to thank Terry for this, as there are FEW gunsmiths that would open up their shops like this. (he is a big supporter and viewer of TNP himself). Viewers should use caution if they choose to do the jobs themselves; there are opportunities for failure in steps that Terry makes look easy. You assume all risk if you attempt your own job. Also a quality spring kit, like the Wison Combat one shown, should be used in quality trigger job. Smith and Wesson recommends against cutting the the stock springs (could result in unreliable ignition). The finished trigger is nothing short of perfection and it was worth the cost (yep, I pay him just like you!). In drills and max accuracy tests, the trigger yielded tighter groups. It also increases pride and enjoyment of this little Smith./////////////// Trigger job information: Impact Guns, Attn: Terry G ("Yoda G") from TNP, 2710 South 1900 West, Ogden, Utah 84401, 801-393-2474, Extension 306, EMAIL: terryg@impactguns.com, (phones 888-505-3086 or 801-409-1021 too).////////////////Music: partnersinrhyme.com

    Epic video in its quiet way. The detailed show-and-tell by Terry G is GOLD.

    Seasoned, real-deal gunsmiths like him are such a resource.

    Great video! Can I use really fine sand paper and achieve the same results? I'd hate to spend close to 20 bucks just to have one stone shipped to me only to never use it again...

    I just did this procedure using Terry's video as a guide and it worked amazing.

    I got my new springs from Wolff for $9.00.

    The only part that requires some finesse with a flat blade screwdriver is getting the rebound spring back over the post. To prevent tears I put a layer of duct tape on the frame below this area in case the screwdriver slipped. After about 4 tries I pushed HARD enough to get it back in place.

    You can get the hard Arkansas stones Terry is using at Brownell's or Midway.

    I'm sure as much as he would have loved to have a tripod, he was behind the scenes of an everyday job of perfection that is rarely seen. So a tripod would probably been pretty intrusive, not to ment they had like 4 people in a 4x4x8 space. I'm thankful just to have seen this video. I was so stuck on the information I was receiving, I didn't even notice camera shake.
