What to do when your revolver is jammed?

I think he needed a bigger hammer, my favorite is a 48 oz ball pein hammer. Don't need any ball joint or tie rod forks. Just one good smack.
I could hammer forge that revolver into something else maybe a good knife with a revolver handle? Lol, it's late, can't sleep, just funning.

Where's my new n frames? Hammer time it's not dancing.

They sell tools to anybody with no education how to use them.

OK, he ain't much of a revolver smith, but I bet he can really handle a ham sandwich

Always say something positive about people.

I've had three guns that jammed. One semi-auto and two revolvers.

I gave one away and sold the other two.

Kind of hard to trust them after having problems with them even if they get "fixed".

Impact hammer or nothin!

Just kidding. I cannot ever remember taking a hammer to my gun.
Well, i had to remove a squib once. But some Kroil made it quite easy.

Found this gunsmithing video interesting when researching how to fix my "jammed" 642 Airweight. What to do when your revolver is jammed? - YouTube

When asked, S&W support discouraged taking my busted 642 to a gunsmith. The reason: If a gunsmith (licensed or certified matters not) messes up, the S&W warranty is null and void. The S&W solution: ship it to us for free manufacturer warranty based resolution.

I've been shooting revolvers for about 55 years and never saw this issue, or would know what to do about it if I did. Learned something new today thank to you.
