Mikeman;The way things work is like this,if my brother becomes fond of something else,and less fond of the Weigands in the future,I'll be here.He gets first crack at the cash,and I get first crack at the Weigands.I still have one Weigand and he still has one Wilson "Protector",We are not finished. ;D

Doc;We have been trading and buying from each other for over forty years;when we both got into guns together we drove our wives up the wall.

TA; I have never removed the ejector rod on the Python,I do remove the crane/yoke to remove the cylinder for cleaning.I have someone on another gun site that will tell us,he worked at the Colt factory, has about six of the snakes,and is very knowledgable about things on our Pythons.I wiil ask him and be back to you on this.

TA;I like that question a little better than the last one, ;D.Look on the right side of the frame,below the cylinder.You will see a large screw that is close to the front of the trigger guard.Find a screw driver whose bit matches perfectly with that screw.This screw is a right hand threw,so you will turn it counter clock wise to remove it.This screw serves the purpose on locking the crane/yoke into the frame,once you remove it open your cylinder crane,and pull it out.Once it is out you can see how the screw retains the crane in the frame.If you want,I can do it with photos and put it on the GUNMEN II site.Be very careful removing the torqued screw,don't burr the screw slot and don't let the screw driver bit slip.Put a firm amount of pressure against the tip as you slowly turn it to break the torque for the first time.It is most probable that the screw has never been turned,but being of nickel plate finish,it may not be very difficult.A good fitted screw driver bit is most important for working on firearms,some say Chapmans are crap but I have broken some tough screws with mine without the slightest burr afterwards.Keep me tuned in on this.
