Colt pocket positive problem
Hi all
Just picked up a pocket positive 1937 model 32 long. Online purchase.
Using colt revolver checkout found here. there is one cylinder that don't advance when trigger is pulled or hammer is cocked. (It will carry up about 20% of the time)
Also when hammer is pulled back the bolt don't retract until the hammer is moved about .050 using feeler gauge.
The .050 is a estimated guess but the bolt movement is not instant.
Lockup is tight on all cylinders, I don't have a range rod to check barrel/cylinder alignment.
I'm very handy and can repair most things but everything I read about colt lockwork screams tricky work.
Seller offers 3 day return which is a option. As for my mechanical ability I completely tore down and reassembled a colt 32 pocket hammerless (difficult) but sucessful, won't do that again.
Thanks for any info/help.
Regards
Mike
