I have a 4" Nickel model 29-2 that I purchased for what I think was a very good price at the local pawnshop a while back When I bought it I noticed that when pressing the thumb piece, it was difficult to get the cylinder to open. I think the center pin is sticking. I have already checked to see if the ejector rod is screwed all the way in, it is. Today, I fired some fairly hot rounds, and could not open the cylinder at all. Later, after applying liberal amounts of spray lubricant, I was able to open it. I went back to firing .44 Spl's, and it was sticky but didn't again refuse to open. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
