I was out shooting the Single-Six (with LR cylinder), and suddenly the gun locked up after a misfire (which was the first in probably 700 rounds). I tried to cock the hammer again, but it would not move to full cock. I took the pin out to remove the cylinder and notice the small metal tip was missing. I found it and the spring without much fuss though.
This wouldn't be a big deal, but the silver metal tip cannot be placed back in the pin because it is too large! I'm not sure how it worked itself out in the first place, but it did. Not exactly happy with this situation, as it has been an amazing gun for the money. Not quite as accurate as I had hoped with LR, but that's the price you pay for versatility
Any help on how to put the tip back into the pin would be most appreciated. Plus, I need it to work right now since I can't find ammo for my Blackhawk
Here is a diagram as I have no clue what the technical terms are... Base pin assembly I believe.
