My Taurus died at the range tonight. It is an old model 65, 357 Magnum "K" frame with fixed sights. I was running some 38's through it and got a misfire. I popped the cartridge out to check the primer, found it had been lightly hit but comepletly off center. What the ? I closed the cylinder and to my horror found that it would now free spin in either direction. With the hammer cocked, the cylinder free spins forward, but will not rotate backwards. Dryfiring and thumbcocking, the cylinder does advance but won't lock up. I will ship it back to Taurus for repair, but can someone tell me what busted?
