Nice!
I used this in a Great Western Arms SAA from the mid 50's. Hammer cocking is much easier and trigger pull was lightened considerably. Only had to shorten the trigger spring slightly. Easy peazy!

Work great
These springs were easy to install and noticeably reduced the cooking pressure and dropped trigger pull just over 1/2 pound on both my Uberti SAA's.
100% fire and droped in.
I put this kit in a Cimarron Bad Boy 44 mag. It has a 1860 grip but is basically a Uberti Colt SA clone. It dropped right in without any modification. It lightened the pull considerably (unmeasured 6 to 3 lbs) and fired 100% with no light primer hits. Very pleased.
Works with Pietta guns
I bought this kit and installed it in a Pietta 1873 it made the hammer real easy to work and the trigger pull was dropped by 1 lbs, I bought a Pietta 1851 navy cap and ball revolver and found out it had the same hammer spring in it as the 1873 so I got another kit for it, now both of them are much better.
Excellent product!
I installed a set of Wolff springs in my Uberti Cattleman, then installed this set of Lee Gunslinger springs. I wanted to see which I liked the best. The Lee Gunslinger springs are much better in my humble opinion; noticeably easier cocking and also more consistent hammer resistance throughout its arc of travel while cocking. The Lee Gunslinger springs are my choice. I did have to use my Dremel tool to grind a small bit of metal off of the end of the spring at the hammer end for the spring to work well without binding up, but that was very minor work and the end result is a spring that I consider superior to the Wolff spring.
too light
The spring is too light. It miss fires, even with Federal primers. I have two Uberti .45LC 1873 SAA.
