ok, I am new here and i have searched all over this site trying to find an answer to no avail. Can someone help?
I bought this rough rider 22 mag from a guy that needed money for $20 a couple months ago and it didnt come with a base pin so i made my own for the time and it worked great but i was leary and it would try to fall out from time to time so i ordered a base pin and also a 22 lr cylinder while i was at it from heritage. when i put the new base pin in everything is good and tight, better than before, but when you try to pull the hammer back the part that locks the cylinder in after every revolution will not go down all the way fast enough. now that being said, I can pull the base pin out of the locking pin say about 1/8 in. and it will rotate smoothly and without fail but push it all the way in the there is about a 1/16 that stays up on that locking mechanism that stops it from rotating. I have took the gun COMPLETELY apart and cleaned and lubed up everything and I really dont know what to do from here. I know its a old heritage gun and all the parts are working good but why is it not going quicker that the lever that spins the cylinder.
