Never having owned an open top BP revolver. What is defined as a short arbor, and why is it detrimental?
Thanks in advance

I thought this problem plagues Ubertis rather than Piettas.The original Colt revolvers were built accordingly but all the reproductions, since the originals, have been built with short arbors.

But it's easily fixed by putting the requisite thickness of washers on the end of the arbor (either temporarily or permanently).
I am currently working on a more permanent fix than adding washers that can fall out and be lost. Will update everyone when I've done a few and see if its cost effective. I already know it works.

I haven't had one come out either but I kinda like the idea of a more permanent fix. By the way I'm offering a $20 discount for my full on tune this month.
