I recently bought a very lightly used 27-2 do that had the same problem. I got it open, by tapping on the release, and disassembled it. The parts inside had small drops of moisture on them. I put all the parts in my cleaning pan and covered them with mineral spirits to clean them. The...

Hello Bhfromme. You have identical revolvers made by the same company so they should feel the same. However if you bought either one of them used, the previous owners could have done trigger jobs, changed springs and polished parts, on either one of them. Unless it's a "safe" gun I want to...
