    S&W 986 moon clips sticking fix

    Do what you want..but the area that needs to be reduced will not affect the rachet integrity. All of my other moon clips revolvers have proper clearance. The one in the picture is what it looks like now after cleaning up the rachet.

    S&W 986 moon clips sticking fix

    FYI: Had a situation where my full moon clips would hang up & fail to drop fully into the cylinder (occasionally). There should be a gap between the rachet area and moon clip (circles). Simple fix was to remove the high spots on the rachet (arrow) to increase the gaps. A visual inspection with...

    The factory titanium cylinder on a 986 revolver could use a touch of chamfering for moon clip reloads. Anyone have any experience chamfering titanium cylinders, or is that a no-no?

    Anyone have experience with Hi-Tek coated lead bullets in the L frame PowerPort revolver? Ruling out jacketed bullets do the Hi-Tek lead bullets reduce PowerPort buildup compared to traditional lubed bullets? Do they come close to jacketed bullets?

    Ideally, I would like a quality 30mm tube, 3-5 MOA dot, compact (low base mount) for action pistol. I have a couple of Aimpoint H2 6MOA red dots that are really great, just wish they had the larger 30mm tube. Also considering trying a green dot.
