Brand new Model 14 shoots fine upright, turned right side down, and even upside down, everytime.
But it doesn't shoot turned left side down, like a gansta'. The cylinder rotates fine and locks up. Trigger pulls all the way back. But hammer won't fall. Let go of trigger, pull it again, same thing, cylinder rotates fine, trigger pulls all the way back, but hammer won't fall.
I think revolver should be able to shoot in any orientation. Right?
More info:
With the side plate off, the action works fine with the revolver left side down. Put the side plate back on, and it jams.
Even more info:
I didn't tighten the side plate screw enough. After tightening the heck out of these screws, it got a lot better, but jam still happens occasionally--like one out of 50.
