I picked up a pair of used Model P Cimarrons, they have the cat 537 written on the box... they were a deal (I thought) at $700 for the pair from the used gun room of cabelas. Unfortunately they would not let me remove the base pins at the store. They did come with 45ACP conversion cylinders (that model comes with 45LC/45ACP cylinders). On the outside, they're beauties with the charcoal case-hardening and deep blue finish.
Taking them home, and pulling the pins, I think they are the filthiest guns I've ever seen. In any case the bushings cannot come out of three of the cylinders. After really working on one with CLP, cold air, I was able to knock one out from the back, using a soft brass rod and a gunsmith hammer.
Should all four of these cylinders have bushings? Both on the 45 colt and the 45 ACP cylinders? What's the best advisable way to get them out?
Thanks!
