Hi I have a Dan Wesson .357 mag revolver,it's a bit heavy when I pull the trigger so I would like to adjust it a little lighter that would be more accurate,is it easy to adjust it by myself since I know something about mechanics,anyone here can tell me how to works ? thanks a lot!!!
 
You sir need a gunsmith. Revolver triggers are quite intricate pieces of work, and without intimate knowledge of what you are doing, are easy to screw up. I would strongly suggest not trying to lessen the pull on your own....
 
Get a spring kit from Wolf springs, try the various weight springs. After that it is a case of CAREFULLY polishing the trigger drag surfaces. You can also smooth the sear contact surfaces, but you have to be extremely careful here. DW hammers are cast, and the hardening isn't very deep, if memory serves. So, polish very lightly, fit and try, repeat as required. As mentioned, this is not a project for the hamfisted, and you might want to get a spare hammer and trigger before you start working on it. If you polish too much, you will need them. - dan
