Hey guys, I just had a question regarding the cylinder assembly on the gp100
A few days ago when I was reassembling my ruger gp100 after a detailed cleaning i noticed that upon replacing the cylinder that there was some resistance met when trying to close the cylinder. I checked the cylinder and made sure that the ejector star was in it's place, and it was, and there were no other obstructions. I tried to spin the the cylinder after pushing it into place within the frame and it was a bit of a tight fit and would not spin freely. However upon re-installing the trigger assembly everything seemed to work fine. I was wondering if any of you guys have ever experienced this problem, as there is no mention of it in the manual, and if so is it a big deal or something that needs fixing? :roll:
-Thanks

the crane arm was pulling on the cyl to the front ,when you install the trigger group the plunger pushes the arm back where it`s supposed to be & all is well.
if this happens again push back on the crane , cyl. should free up.
