Terry,
	Like Rob, my first guess is hammers. If made from samples, as worn as you
say, the "guesstimate" of proper overall length may have been short. Fat
let-off will work, I bet. Longer hammers probably isn't in the budget, eh?
Might be a good candidate for a Jack Wyatt "turbo" treatment. Tilt the
action a bit. Have you ever tried that? Jack's at JWyatt1492@aol.com. I
believe that there are Journal articles, also, on doing that kind of
modification.

Good luck,
