I just recently got my NAA .22 mag short barrel, but I have a question about the "safety" notches.
When I fully cock the hammer (UNLOADED GUN), and while still holding the hammer I pull the trigger and let the hammer come forward slowly back down onto a chamber the hammer comes fully forward.
But when I follow the manual and half cock the hammer, and then pull it back further to get the cylinder to move freely, and then line up a "safety notch", when I pull the trigger letting the hammer come forward, it doesn't come fully forward like when its lined up on a chamber. And per the manual I check to see if the cylinder will turn, and the cylinder will not turn, but there some "play" in the cylinder. It moves a little bit, more than the cylinder moves when sitting on a chamber. And when I say moves, it moves like it would if it were going to rotate, because I check it by trying to rotate it manually.
So is that little gap normal? I'm going to post a picture the first one will be of the gun with it in the "safety" notch showing the gap. The second will be under the next post and will be of the hammer fully forward resting on a chamber.
I'd really appreciate help from other owners or people who are familiar with this gun. THANKS!
