Does the cylinder not move at all when pulling the trigger on those two?

Or does it come up short before it locks in and you can manually rotate it backwards?

If it is not turning at all or not turning far enough, it sounds like a problem with the star or the hand. Is the hand spring holding the hand with secure tension against the star ratchets?
