My cylinder stop was broken so I ordered a repro. It makes the trigger spring hit the bottom of the trigger guard.So now it wont cycle if the trigger guard is on... Anyone have any opinions on what to do?
And when I work the hammer, how many positions am I supposed to have? My hammer has 2 grooves for safe and fire but before the the safe it clicks so that the cylinder can turn freely but I can just touch the hammer with the lightest touch it falls into the safety notch and the cylinder stop flings up for the safety position.... What causes that first click to turn the cylinder? If I work the hammer to fast it misses it and falls on safety.
PS: Gun is an original 1858 Navy.
