Thanks for the information and the compliment!This one's been backburnered for a while. Need to set it up with a stiffer mainspring, and/or make the firing pin part of the hammer longer, I just haven't been able to get reliable ignition even with the cylinder set up nice and solid. I haven't given up, but I've been busy with my competition revolver. ( 929 S&W) The double action is pretty heavy even with the current mainspring, and the insides are a pita to pull out, work on, and then reinstall since you're working through a little slot in the frame. Was thinking I'd make a jig that lets me set the action up outside of the frame, so I can see what is going on.
Your grips look very nicely done!
Nice gun Biblethumpncop and you did an excellent job on those beautiful grips.I know this post is over a year old, but I just got a NEF R92 so in my research for NEF and H&R, I found this awesome thread. Have you done anything further on the 22lr? I made a set of cocobolo grips for my R92, but would have loved to have the ability to make them larger/longer like you did. The ball crane idea was something I was thinking of as well, but it appears you nixed it. Did you ever go back to the drawing boards?

Thanks! The sights are nice. The ergonomics of the gun are barrel/nose heavy. The trigger is heavy, but the gun is 100% reliable so far. I will try a different spring but don't want to compromise reliability.Nice gun Biblethumpncop and you did an excellent job on those beautiful grips.
I like that your R92 Ultra features fully adjustable sights.
I bet that's a real sweet shooter.
Smooth but heavy double action trigger is preferable to light strikes. Rimfire revolvers get better with use. I love those grips too. Makes me want to go dig my old 9 shooter out for tomorrow.Thanks!

I tried a lighter spring this afternoon with spacers, but got about 30-40% misfires. I'll swap back in the original spring, and should start my own thread since this one high jacked the OP thread.

No worries, it's all good convoI tried a lighter spring this afternoon with spacers, but got about 30-40% misfires. I'll swap back in the original spring, and should start my own thread since this one high jacked the OP thread. Sorry!
