The hammer....
...was following the slide down, and both the hammer and sear had been stoned to the point that there was nothing left to work with, so I replaced both with new, hardened parts. The grips were cracked and damaged, so I replaced them, and one of the escutcheons was stripped, so I had a buddy of mine clean that up and put in a new escutcheon. The fit between the slide/bushing/barrel, and slide/frame was still outstanding (Lyle was very good about cleaning and oiling his guns), so I didn't have to do anything there.
