Blackhawk
When I load my 101 I can tip it upside down and the cartridges will fall out. If I try to unload with the ejector it binds after about 1/4 inch. Any thoughts? Have tried it with 38 and 357. It's a 357 5 shot.
Sure, but not much information here. A new firearm? Started happening just recently? What simple checks have you done? The first thing to check on .38/.357 revolvers is whether there is a ring of firing residue in the chambers. That ring of stuff has to be cleaned out. If every one of the 5 chambers holds onto a fired case, then you start thinking insufficient finish reaming. Bent ejector rod possible, but unusual unless the gun has received the Hollywood treatment. A bent ejector rod will stick without ANY cases in the cylinder. ...things you can do without expensive equipment. No comments on the repair invoice? That won't help us out. Wonder what they did?When I load my 101 I can tip it upside down and the cartridges will fall out. If I try to unload with the ejector it binds after about 1/4 inch. Any thoughts?
