Working on my first Bisley Conversion on a SBH Hunter. Got everything back together and have a problem.
The hammer won't cock/rotate the cylinder. With the cylinder out, it cocks/fires perfectly. With the cylinder pin in, it cocks/fires perfectly. But when I put the cylinder in, it feels like the pawl is jamming up. I've checked and it doesn't look like the transfer bar is hitting the firing pin. I've checked and the plunger/spring are installed properly and engages the pawl as it should (with cylinder out).
But with it completely back together, I can only pull the hammer back an half-inch or so and it feels like something binds up. I'm almost positive it has to do with the pawl but I may be wrong.
I've installed a new grip frame (obviously), bisley hammer, bisley trigger, and new top/back grip frame screws. The gun also has an aftermarket cylinder pin.
I recorded it on my iphone but don't know how to upload it here.
Confused in Texas,
