Can You Identify These Revolver Parts

[Xrover]

This shouldn't take y'all very long.

I've been going through some misc. parts I have and I am unable to identify what revolver the Hammer and Trigger are from. I've always assumed they were removed from a customized Colt Python I had but looking at the parts diagrams, they don't look like Python parts.

Can anyone identify what the make and model gun they're from?

Thanks..

They are older Smith & Wesson. Can't tell by the picture what Frame size.

Thank you.
Most of mine were K frames.
I'll check online. It actually could be from my father's LAPD carry Smith & Wesson .38 spl. (1970's). I'm pretty sure he had jeweled Hammer and Trigger.

They are from the S&W 14-4. My dad's old duty revolver.

Thanks guys!

Those don't look like they're jeweled, it looks like case hardening.

Jeweling is aftermarket work, factory finish is case hardening.

Those were removed from the gun and he had new ones that were jeweled installed by his gunsmith.

Your dad had good taste in guns.

I'm far from an expert but from the pic you posted it looks like the hammer is for a DAO 14-4. Many PD's issued DAO revolvers to avoid liability stemming from AD's while in SA, so S&W obliged and made the 14-4 available as DAO.

Most LEO's I have talked to hated the DAO option and swapped them out for stock trigger and hammer if they got to keep their guns; maybe your dad did the same thing. A factory letter would verify if it was shipped that way.

How can I tell if the parts I showed are DAO?
I am going to sell them.

Scroll on down to post #18. The pics shows the difference between a DAO and standard hammer. The absence of that little ridge is the difference between the two. It's kind of scary to think that the little ridge is all that is holding back a cocked trigger.

Thank you for posting the link..
There is no notch so it must be DAO. I would think it is less desirable?

I just checked his service revolver with the jeweled Hammer/Trigger and it is DAO.

If you are selling the gun it wouldn't make a huge difference because they aren't really expensive guns anyway, maybe $50 less for a nice 14-4 with DAO. If you had a SAO it would actually bring a premium if factory original.

For just the parts it will all depend on if someone has a 14-4 DAO that they need a hammer/trigger for. Heck, if someone needed one bad enough to return a favorite gun to service they might pay a premium, but I doubt it.

I'd list it at the same price as a regular used assembly and go from there.

Selling just the 2 parts.
