I was wondering if anyone here has ever had this problem with a revolver? My Smith and Wesson model 638 will cycle in double action, but something is preventing the hammer from being raised with my thumb. It will only move back perhaps a quarter of an inch. I also found that if the cylinder is open, and the thumb latch held back, the hammer moves freely?
Thanks in advance for any ideas. I plan on sending it in for repair, but would love to know what is wrong with it.
