Hi, Friends!
I need help.
I was shooting my Ruger Security Six (which I love ) and found I was no longer able to close the cylinder. The gun was not loaded. I thought the ejector star was high for some reason, but that wasn't it. I looked closely, and saw that the cylinder itself had backed off the crane about a tenth of an inch. It turns freely, but won't go back in place, nor will it pull off. That must have happened somehow when I ejected the empties. I have NO idea how this happened.
It's been years since I fired any .357 rounds in the gun... I tend to use it like a .38. The gun doesn't seem worn in any way. sigh.
What's this sound like to you? I guess I'll remove the crane and really look at what's going on. Any thoughts on this?
best,
StrikeEagle
