I recently got an Uberti Cattleman clone of 1873 Colt SAA in .45LC; during sessions to get familiar with the operation of the revolver, I slowly cocked the handgun from hammer all the way forward and heard the distinctive 4 clicks (or C-O-L-T) and saw the trigger go forward and back and forward again...
now I gotta know what exactly is happening during each point in the cocking procedure; I also have a 'concern'--if I stop cocking on the third click (or L) in the lineup, the hammer sometimes drops to the half-cock position...is this normal or do I have a safety problem? (gun was purchased NIB and I only put 200 rounds thru it; as far as I know the store had the gun in stock @ 6 months and was probably handled before I got it)
thanks for your time and answers
