It was sticky inside, the bolt was not engaging as it should and his dry firing did the damage. Worked fine ever since.

I WONDER WHAT WOULD POSSESS THIS FOOL TO TREAT SUCH A BEAUTIFUL OLD REVOLVER, WITH SUCH WANTON DISREGARD ? ? ?
A BASIC CARDINAL RULE IS THAT YOU DO NOT DRY FIRE RIMFIRE FIREARMS, WITH EMPTY CHAMBERS. AS AN NRA INSTRUCTOR, FOR MANY YEARS, THAT IS ONE THING THAT I MAKE SURE THAT MY STUDENTS UNDERSTAND......
COULD THIS HAVE BEEN DONE IN THE FIRST 10 MINUTES THAT HE EVER HANDLED A GUN ? ? ? EVEN THEN, I FIND HIS BEHAVIOR INEXCUSABLE......
