I have a Smith & Wesson Mountain Gun .45 Colt. After recently shooting and carrying the gun around my summer home, I attempted to push the cylinder switch to unload it. The cylinder switch is completely stationary, and the cylinder will not eject/come out from the firing position. The hammer and trigger work fine, the cylinder also rotates when the hammer/trigger are pulled or operated. It just seems like the cylinder won't come out. I don't recall dropping it or anything odd happening to the gun prior to its current malfunction. I initially thought it was a missing screw found on the opposite side of the gun, near the grip, that you see in the picture. However, this picture is old, and the gun has been functioned/fired multiple times since the picture was taken.
I really don't know what to think or do about this, will most likely bring it to my local gun smith. This really stinks, I love to shoot this gun but now its stuck with empty brass in it.........
Any ideas as to why my cylinder will not come out from the gun?
