Them's some @TerryMiller -esque pics, man! Damn nice shots, and damn nice hardware!

Lightening the hammer aids in faster lock time and less mass means faster, harder hammer strikes to the firing pin which helps pop primers at lower trigger weights. The interior of the frame honestly hasn't appeared to be any dirtier than any of my guns with OEM hammers installed. I also have a second Carmoney style hammer that my brother modified (shown in second photo below...named after Mike Carmoney), but the cut would allow debris to fall down behind the hammer so it is not at all optimal for a carry gun. Perfectly fine for a comp gun though.

Thanks!!!
Nice rig man. I just so happens I have shot that gun a few times. I liked it and I dont even like revolvers. Didnt yall do some trading?
Thanks Brad. Yep, he wanted an A2 HBAR that I was planning to trade towards a Model 17. This was the much better route to go. I doubt that I would have had much luck swapping the rifle up at Wanenmacher anyway. Maybe you'll get to shoot the rifle soon too...lol.
Great looking gun.
You are correct. And, ha, I have already shot the rifle. Nice gun. I like the way that longer gas length feels.
