Did it do this from new, did you ever disassemble, clean and lube the gun?

I expect the problem is with one of the "teeth" in the ratchet the hand engages to rotate the cylinder. If it's machined incorrectly the problem you are experiencing will occur.barrya said:I cocked it 5-6 times and dry fired it twice. It is just one of the charge holes that is the problem. Even when it doesn't lock up it is hard to cock on one hole. Barry
Got my Redhawk back today. It said they replaced the pawl, pawl spring, set b/c clearance, set head space and replaced shroud. Is the shroud the barrel shroud? It feels MUCH better. If weather cooperates I may shoot it this weekend. I am impressed so far. Barrybarrya said:Got an email this afternoon that my Redhawk will be delivered back Monday. That is an unbelievabley quick turnaround. They got it on Friday the 19th and it will be back on Monday the 29th. WOW!!! Barry
