"Drags" on two cylinders (hard to turn). Can't see a bend anywhere. Cylinder/barrel gap looks ok. (Don't have feeler gages)
I can do simple mods to modern plastic guns, and 1911's, but I know my limitations. I really like this revolver and I want to shoot it.
Chambers, not cylinders."Drags" on two cylinders. . .
Yes, chambers. Forgive me. Gun is clean, Cylinder locating pins are present and look correct. I can see gap between forcing cone and cylinder all the way around. Crane is fitting nicely to frame. I am wondering if something is wrong with the lock works internally, but I know very little about how to approach that area. That's why I am seeking a pro.
Check to see if your ejector rod is screwed in tight. Having backed out a bit could account for the cylinder latch requiring a bit of extra oomph. A bent ejector rod would cause that also.
The early ones were right-hand. The -1 was the engineering change of right to left in 1959 for the Model 15.I believe the ejector rod is left hand threaded. (It's been 35 years since I took the armory's course and I don't remember if it was the late or early ones that were left handed)
Well, anybody want to guess what Numrich is sold out on? FML

FML is what you say when you find out you're SOL.
