Has anyone seen or got access to the standard dimensioned drawings for an assembled DW15 or its component parts?

Given these revolvers are getting older and some have had a great deal of use, I wanted to be able to check if wear has moved the revolver out of spec. eg overall length of the cylinder, gap at the rear of the cylinder when assembled into the frame etc - all relate to our many discussions about wear and movement.

Hoping someone somewhere has tis inofrmation, or can maybe point me in the right direction to find it.

Cheers

John,

This would be very good information to have but I know I (DWF) do know have this information.

If anyone does have information like this I would be glad to post it on the site.

Frankly, that would be the Holy Grail of DWF-dom. CZ/DW must certainly have that to make replacement parts, but that would be pretty closely held proprietary info.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Yep, I imagine they would hold onto that stuff pretty securely.

In a related thought (sort of), wouldn't it be cool if DW would make some of those counter mats like some of the other companies do, that shows a partial blueprint of a DW?Cool

Thanks Guys

will send an email to CZ asking for particular dimensins that I am seeking - particularly around cylinder length as it affects front to back travel.

Will keep you in the loop

I used to have a dimension drawing from an old DW ad.  You could make out the drawing nicely, but the numbers were foggy (maybe not even real).
