I just bought a a new Ruger for the first time in about a decade. I am not new to firearms or Rugers I am no collector, just a shooter. I recently became aware of the 7 shot model 1774 with the 2.5" barrel and I had to have one. Love me some snubby's. It is a beauty and I am sure this is a minor issue due to a burr that I can take care of with a little sanding or polishing. I am just not sure where to look.
As I start to pull the trigger back in double action at about 1/4 cock I run into a wall. This is in slow fire trying to keep the sights on target. I hit a wall continue to squeeze and it feels like after an additional 5 lbs of force the cylinder rotates and the trigger slams all the way to fire. Like the pall or hand gets stuck and has to be forced pass a shelf? The single action trigger is very smooth and when cocking the hammer manually it is also very smooth. Just the double action trigger gets hung up?
I pulled the hammer and strut and gave them a quick polish along with the hammer dog (no change) but I have not taken out the trigger yet. Is there anything in particular I should be looking for or paying attention to?
Also when I pull the trigger fast I blow right through the wall, it is in slow fire double action only where the wall is really pronounced.
Thank for your help.
