"smithra66" brings up more than an interesting point----Colt DA's with V springs.

I had one. We called it the Roper Colt----it had the whole treatment: Roper grips, sights, and action job. One aspect of the action job is germane here---the cylinder stop timing---and the accompanying sounds (Although the sounds were significant enough to call them NOISE!!).

So----cock the hammer: As soon as it (the trigger actually) moved, the cylinder stop SNAPPED down. It stayed down until the next chamber was almost in line, and then it SNAPPED up. There was more than enough power behind it to make the king of all turn rings, except for the fact that it SNAPPED up into the relieved lead into the next notch----AND the bluing in the leads had been polished off----leaving metal the same color as a turn ring. So there was a turn ring----maybe 1/8-3/16" long in each lead---but it was invisible.
