Uberti SAA Cylinder Play

[Indiana Jones]

Slight side to side play (rotation) isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's often intentional so that the bullet can self align on the forcing cone as it enters the barrel. Otherwise, if the cylinder is locked tight and the timing is even slightly off, bullets will get shaved and wear on the cone.

The cylinder spins complete free I every position. When it stops it is completely misaligned. It's fooked.

Missed that. Jeez. Not good. Good luck getting it fixed.

Just wait until you try to take the lever spring screws out of an Uberti lever action rifle.

And keep us posted. That pistol should work.

I just realized....doesn't this thing have a 5 year warranty? Couldn't I send it to Uberti, then install my upgrades later?

If your Uberti isn't that old, make it Uberti's problem.
