Doesn't happen every time but often enough to make me uncomfortable...
Ruger SP101, THE TANK in 357...
Very, low round count l, great lockup, but occasional cylinder slip with a hand turn rotation. No push-off, baby is TIGHT!
There is almost no wear. Could it be the spring lock? The locking dog? How about a stop with slight play?
I have never seen this on any Ruger... I hesitation on sending it back...
The locking cylinder stop is offset to the horizontal frame so it has a slight angle to adjust for cylinder diameter.
Fairly sure of the fix BUT where would you start?
