Single actions bust my knuckle

[.429&H110]

He is a fine kid,
shoots 9mm away better than I do
(not saying much).
Everybody has pistols
and I show up with a revolver.
I am glad his Dad could teach him
about wheelguns, 'cause I'm left handed.
As a helpful knuckle saver: deburr and polish the trigger guard to shiny inside and out so it doesn't grab you like a kitten.
But it will still bite, sometimes.

I deburr and dull sharp edges on every gun I own. On a single action revolver, the butt has some sharp corners that get relieved, and the trigger guard gets it's edges dulled if they bite. Basically anything that causes pain gets the 600 grit paper taken to it, or a file then 600 grit paper. Guns don't stay perfect anyways if you use them.

I do the same thing with my Colt’s 3rd gen SAA’s. Sometimes the edges are so rough when they come from the factory I’ll hit the edges with a file. Then touch it up with sandpaper and finish it with bluing.
