Our heritage has been flawless over the years, but the day is coming when I get to crack it open to fix something...the company ought to advertise how simple it is to repair anything on the gun, encouraging folks to try their hand at amateur gunsmithing...the parts are available, it does not require fancy tools, and excellent videos like this show how to get it done...carry on...!

Good job. Your voice was very clear - no fluff (or annoying background music) - plain explanation. I appreciate how you associated each part with how it works. Just purchased a new RR. Was wondering how this broke down. Thank you 👍🏼

The best I can understand dry firing a .22 is because you drive the firing pin against the breech. If you have the safety on with the Heritage you're only landing the hammer on the safety bolt.

YES, you're exactly right.

Great video but I'd just like to know if I ever need a new hammer spring, can I replace it by only taking off the grips and nothing else?

@megatrends 5 ай бұрын

The bottom of the hammer sits on the spring under tension and with the frame attached there isnt room to just change it by removing the grips. The top frame part does not have to be all disassembled to change the hammer spring but you will need to remove the top half to change the hammer spring. None of the small parts will fall out other than the loading gate spring and small pin so dont lose those.

Ruger uses music wire coiled springs. I think it's better than tradition hammer springs.

My trigger spring broke after I was fanning it way back then

Thanks for the video showing a similar issue that I was having. Very helpful to understand more about this pistol that we found after a loss of a family member. One question, with that hammer spring, I am having lots of trouble getting it back in place under tension. How did you do that part? Any tips? Thanks!

@megatrends 5 ай бұрын

You have to push down on it with the receiver portion before putting screws in to hold it in place. Hard to explain here ... the bottom part of the hammer makes contact with the top of the spring, squeeze the top half and tha grip half together before inserting screws ... you have to keep it under tension during assembly.

Thanks. I appreciate your help. The issue for me is that I cannot get the hammer spring under tension at all. Before I disassembled that spring it was under tension but it just falls out. Seems that that spring will not lock back in place before I attempt to take the backstrap and connect it to the receiver with the hammer. Wish I had seen this video before I had taken it apart.

Any trick to putting that hammer spring back in?

No, goes in the way it comes out. Wasn't difficult.

you CANNOT dry fire the ruger wrangler. I must have dry fired mine about 400 times... it puts a dent into every cylinder hole. Had to call ruger and have them send me a new one.

The manual says you can. I stated in my video that is the case but I didn't trust it and recommended not dry firing it. Generally with 22lr you just never dry fire.
