Well I was cleaning my new Dragoon this afternoon and discovered that the cylinder-to-barrel-gap was too tight < 0.006”. Upon closer inspection, I discovered that the arbor does not bottom out in its corresponding hole in the barrel.
So, no shooting for me this weekend until I get the gap sorted out.
Questions please:
1) What should the cylinder-to-barrel-gap be on a Dragoon, I assume 0.006” to 0.010”?
2) What is the best shim material to use in the bottom of the barrel hole to adjust the cylinder-to-barrel-gap?
Thanks a bunch!
