    1862 Police Cylinder binds

    I am a long way from being a gunsmith but simple things I can do.

    1862 Police Cylinder binds

    Finally figured it out. The previous owner had tried to solve the cap jam problem by filling in the slot in the hammer. The stuff he used was standing slightly proud hardly enough to notice but just enough to keep the trigger from completely resetting. Two or three swipes with a diamond stone...

    1862 Police Cylinder binds

    Yes it's the same on both guns. I'll try to turn some nipples down when I get time and see if that will work. Thanks

    1862 Police Cylinder binds

    I was given 2 Uberti 1862 police cap and ball revolvers. Both seem to be in good shape and operate correctly. However when I put caps on, the cylinders bind and wont turn. I have tried different nipples with no change. Any of you pistol gurus have an idea what the problem might be. Thanks

    Pardon me, but here I go again...

    There was a guy on EBAY selling nipples for toy caps. I bought one set to try out and they work just fine. Unfortunately I can't seem to find them again.

    Oldest photograph of a dog.

    This is likely going to be a very long thread, and for good reason.

    The black gang. So named by a neighbor. All rescues and the best friend a man can have. Each has passed now and I miss all of them every day'

    Now this tops the cake...........

    My wife never complains when I buy a new gun. I have not complained when she bought one of the 50-60 guns she owns.

    A rescue for sure. There are plenty of older dogs who need a home.
