Today I bought a black underlug Agent which I have been unable to date. It's ser# is W32180. WAG would be mid '70's. When I tested lockup in the shop it appeared all was well. I was satisfied handing over $500 for the gun as it appears to be in 98% shape with correct grips. When I got it home I found it has a big problem. In the shop before purchasing I checked timing and dry fired it several times. I did this as I always do, with the barrel pointed down towards the floor. The gun worked perfect and still does with the barrel pointed down at least 45 degrees. However point the barrel up beyond level and pull the trigger the gun completes the fire cycle one (single or double action) and the second trigger pull results in the hammer moving back about 1/8" and the gun locks up tight. It will stay locked up unless I tap the cyl. which produces a faint "click" and it will once gain fire cycle (depending on the attitude of the barrel) It's pretty strange. Cyl. end shake is minimal. Called the shop and I can take it back for a refund so I don't want to take the side plate off. Any thoughts or ideas whats wrong with it? I'm disappointed as it's a very nice gun.
