I took a Model 66 K-frame entirely apart to work on it. It just went back together. There are a few problems though.
1) It has a new extractor rod. The problem is that when the cylinder is locked in place, and I push the cylinder release thumb latch, the cylinder is still stuck b/c of the locking bolt. When the old extractor rod is in place, it works just fine. Oddly, they both seem to be identical. What's the deal?
2) The hand does not work when the gun is tilted upwards. Works fine when gravity assists it with the gun pointed barrel down, but won't rotate the cylinder when the barrel is pointing up.
also, the spring that's in the trigger assembly? Does that need to be put a certain way? It doesn't even seem to be necessary?
