Hi everyone, first post.
I was looking at a new 605 in the local gun shop the other day. After a few double action dry fire pulls the gun locks up. The counter guy takes the key, locks and then unlocks it. I try again, it locks up after a couple pulls. This kept happening and he said he was going to send it back.
I've heard of S&W ILS locking up, but never Taurus before.
So, my question is, what would it take to replace the hammer in a 605/651 with a non-ILS hammer? Are non-ILS hammers even available? Would this remove the ILS completely?
