Hi. New to this board and new to Ruger revolvers (I do have a 22/45). Picked up a nice new SP101 snubnose .357 yesterday. I was really excited and took it to the range that evening with a box of .38 sp. and a box of .357. Out of 50 rounds, only 12 ignited
The pin is light striking most rounds. I looked at it pretty close, and I can see the pin going out less than half way from the frame to the cylinder. If I push on the transfer bar, the pin will stick out more than half the distance to the cylinder. The symptom is similar to what I read about when a lighter trigger spring is installed, but this is factory new, out of the box.
Anyone else have this happen on a new gun? Any advice will be appreciated.
