Went out to the range today with my new (to me) Sportsman and 686.
The 686 performed flawlessly!
The Sportsman on the other hand has some timing issues.
Sometimes in SA and DA the cylinder doesn't advance, if you try again maybe it will sometimes it wont...I also had numerous light primer strikes, which eventually all ignited on the second or third go-round.
When I got home I noticed that the hammer screw was loose by two turns...I tightened and it loosened up after a few dry fire cycles. I've since tightened again and it has not loosened up.
Ideas?
