Well I had bought a Lyman trade rifle and the barrel would not fit as the the drum would not fit into the lock plate. So I exchanged it for another however the wood that meets the top front edge of the lock plate has been sanded down too much so the metal and wood don't meet. The metal on the hammer is uneven where it strikes the cap as well. It's bad enough to bother me. It seems to me that this issue would have been very apparent during assembly at the factory. I'm a little dissapointed.
I'm going to call Lyman and see what they say, but I'm considering just returning it and buying the pedersoli Kentucky from cabelas. Suggestions?
So to my actual topic question. How much more difficult is it to clean a pinned barrel? Is there an issue with never removing the barrel?
