Lost two pounds of spring pull weight in one easy step. Installed a nice new fresh sear in granpa's old .45 warhorse. Smooth as butter now. Granted, the original sear is 98-100 years old and looks like it. Now I have a decision. A: clean it up, put a new edge on it and put it back in the old warhorse for posterity, keeping it as original as possible while running the risk of having to hone too much off to straighten it out and render it unservicable, OR B: stick it on my dog tag chain?

Its bagged and tagged. I put the old sear in the bag the new sear came in and wrote the serial number on the bag. It will go with the pistol to the next caretaker/owner. The gun came to me with a barrel in the most piss poor condition I have ever encountered. I knew exactfitly what to do. I know to never put the cart before the horse, but when you put a Kart in the pony, good things happen.
