Hi all. I have an older model 25 that I bought in 1971, and I wanted to be able to shoot .45 long colt ammo in it. I bought an old 38-44 cylinder and my gunsmith rechambered it for .45 Colt. We fitted it and two of the cylinders were sticking. I did not realize at that precise moment that my friend was dying of cancer, as he did not speak of such things. He passed and I just put the cylinder up. This was 25 years ago.
I was digging around in my reloading room yesterday and came across it and put it back in the gun for memory sake. My question is, is there any way that I can smooth or polish this cylinder to make it workable, or should I just put it up in the memory section and forget about it? I would like to make it work, and four of the six are perfect. Any suggestions on getting the other two chambers workable would be appreciated. Thanks, Hank.
