I recently bought a used S&W model 66(-2 I think) .357,2.5 inch
barrel.It was working fine for about 3 trips to the range.
Now,after loading cylinders and closing,go to fire DA.The
hammer goes back approx. half way and won't go further,feels
like something jammed inside.Open cylinder,check ammo
seating,close.It feels like the cylinder needs to be rocked
back and forth a little to "click".After that,works fine till
next reload.This is new (to me anyway).Kind of disconcerting
as I was hoping to use this as home defense weapon.
After the first time,I took off the side plate and looked inside.
Nothing looked bent,broken,out of place.
Anyway,just thought I'd see if any of you folks have had similar
problems.
Thanks
