    Couple of questions from revolver newbie (model 625-8JM)

    It actually rotated fine.. It's just that it skipped firing twice (not consecutively but twice within that same 6 rounds), then the next trigger, it shoots. Then, when it came back to that skipped shot, it fired. So basically, I just kept firing with 2 misfires in the middle.. And as for...

    Thanks for your feedback! I'll be sure to check if strain screw is tight.

    Couple of questions from revolver newbie (model 625-8JM)

    Last weekend, I took it out to range and shot 100 rounds. It was flawless except 2 misfires. Is misfiring somewhat common? It was twice in one cylinder. It fired, then misfired, then fired, fired, misfired, then fired, fired, and fired. It eventually all fired and didn't get stuck like my...

    Hi, I don't believe it was moon clips.. As I've previously mentioned, it was doing that while dry shooting without moon clips. And I was using the BMT demooner. What a great tool! As of now, I still haven't sent it to SW. And don't plan to for the moment. I've been dry firing everyday and...

    Couple of questions from revolver newbie (model 625-8JM)

    Ok I just watched a youtube video and realized I didn't take apart the extractor rod from the cylinder. I only unscrewed the right side of revolver and took out the cylinder to clean. I never disassembled the extractor rod from the cylinder. Is it necessary to disassemble extractor rod and...

    Thank you for your kind response. I will have to go back home and check that out. I don't think I even needed to turn clockwise to disassemble the extractor assembly from the cylinder. I will try to find a youtube video as well but will definitely check out if mine is correctly in place...

    Couple of questions from revolver newbie (model 625-8JM)

    May I ask how do you check if the extractor rod is loose? I removed the cylinder yesterday and took apart the extractor rod from the cylinder and thoroughly cleaned it. However I don't remember having to turn anything counter clockwise to tighten anything.. Sorry for keep asking dumb beginner...

    I'm not sure if that was the issue with mine... Since it feels fine for now, I'll just keep it and go to range and shoot some more. Thanks for sharing your experience.

    Couple of questions from revolver newbie (model 625-8JM)

    Really?? So do you think I should still send it to SW? As I've mentioned, it does seem to be triggering fine now and especially from the ending rounds of my range session.. I don't think I'm knowledgeable enough to do reaming on my own (don't even know what that is)..

    Couple of questions from revolver newbie (model 625-8JM)

    Thank you all so much for your kind responses. Last night I was trying to replicate the issue but couldn't do it. Again, it seems to be fine from the ending rounds of my range session last Saturday. I cleaned it again and again last night as well. Because it just seems fine for now, I have...

    Couple of questions from revolver newbie (model 625-8JM)

    Thank you for the warm welcome! I don't think it was acting up because it was dirty.. I actually experienced the skipping(?) feel even when it was never shot spanking new (just pulling the trigger at home). And to further substantiate it was not an issue of dirtiness is that it was shooting...

    Couple of questions from revolver newbie (model 625-8JM)

    Hello, I am new here and wanted to ask a couple of questions. I picked up my first revolver on 6/4/20 and took it to range for the first time on 6/13/20. It seemed to be shooting fine at first but towards the middle my 625 started acting up. The cylinder would not rotate and hammer would not...
