Does it make sense to remove metal from the "shaft" part of the hammer in order to reduce light primer strikes when using reduced power springs and/or increase lock time?
The removal of the metal would need to be below the center of mass and since the hammer head is quite large that would mean most of the shaft could be "skeletonized" as long as it didn't weaken the structure to a point of failure. This has been done with automatics with success. I wonder why I haven't seen it done with revolvers.
