lots of info here. what to do next. I still haven’t had a chance to shoot the gun yet. I did take the wedge out a old Hawes 51 navy that fits better. so the short arbor issue what happens if I shoot it?does it get worse or no big deal?I should of known better and just stuck with the Remingtons...
ok sounds like a good place to start. yea this gun is unfired the wedge went from pretty much fitting perfect to not at all just sitting on my bench i dont get it
i have a 51 navy i took the wedge from it and put in it. it works but this whole ordeal makes no sense to me. i could see if i was out shooting and things happened but the gun has never seen the range. parts go out of spec [so to speak] just sitting on the shelf come on now. parts fit one day...
well why did it fit at first now not at all this gun is new unfired. the wedge was to loose at first i had to turn the screw out to hold it now the wedge wont even go in.
so i buy a Uberti 61 navy all steel revolver the other day took it apart cleaned it all up slicked up and smoothed out all the internal parts got it working nice and smooth.the wedge works perfectly so far. about the 3rd time i tare this gun apart i start having trouble with the wedge spring...
easy to clean takes 10 minutes
