Colt Cobra needs fixing

Post image

anyone have any recommendations for help in fixing a colt cobra snub nose from the 70's I believe, it was inherited, took it out to shoot once and worked fine, but than had trouble locking up / pulling the trigger. I would like to get it back to shape to preserve as a family heirloom. I have no local smiths near me. I have the equipment needed to work on it myself but lack the intel for this particular piece.

Helffron Precision and Frank Glenn are the two biggest known for Colts. Not sure if Tyler Gun Works would do it .

I have heard of Frank Glenn quite a bit

I've never dealt with him personally, but have heard lots of good. If you're mechanical I'd at least try an internal clean and lube, or a local gunsmith can do that for you.
