Question for ROA owners.
I have been shooting my ROA for quite a while now, and last night, when I was disassembling the gun for a bit of thorough cleaning, I realized that the pawl of the revolver bore a tiny little scratch on the surface that contacts the cylinder to revolve it around. Wasn't deep but noticeable. When illuminated with a flashlight, the scratch looks like a little valley. I think this is normal wear and tear, but is that always present in ROAs and single action revolvers?
I've fired about 100 shots out of it and does anybody here also observe the same phenomenon with the ROA, or any other SA revolver when a certain number of rounds have been fired through it?
I have a number of extra pawls on hand to repair a situation if necessary, but is this normal associated with SA revolvers, since the pawl, or "hand" is a high tension part, and erosion and wear is almost unavoidable.
Thanks for your help.
