I lost the plunger to my cylinder latch assembly early last week and received the replacement from CA today. While reassembling, I mistakenly closed the cylinder without all the proper pieces in place. Now the cylinder is locked in place and I cannot get it open to correctly install the latch assembly. Does anyone here know of a way I can open the cylinder and get things back in ship shape? I'd appreciate the help.
I spoke to the good folks at CA and here is the solution to the problem for anyone who makes the same mistake I did. Take a small screw driver and push the head of the ejector rod toward the muzzle end of the gun. VOILA! The cylinder opens. Simple, Simple!
glad you solved the problem.
i'd buy one of those if i could afford it.

I'm a big fan of CA's revolvers, having a .44 Bulldog and Mag Pug. I'd like to get the 6 shot Police Undercover model (38 sp), but don't really need to since my Dad bestowed upon me a Colt Detective Special when he passed.
