Checked the hand, extractor, trigger and Hammer.
The gun now has a trigger pull of approximately 11 - 12 pound.
Still getting failure to fire on about 5 out of 50 rounds it doesn't matter what type or brand of ammunition I am using.
I am getting dimples in the primer from where the firing pin hits it, and on occasion if I cycle it through for the second time it will fire that round. Sometimes not.
Cylinder of seems to rotate properly although it is just a little loose.
I've owned a ton of jframes and never ever had a problem like this.
Any ideas or suggestions on how to remedy this problem would be greatly appreciated.
