[QUOTE="Hawgman, post: 1121956, member: 7676"] Had a redhawk come to a halt at the range once. The trigger would barely move and had a gummy feel to it. Took it home, got out the owners manual and followed the instructions on how to take it completly apart. As soon as I pulled the trigger group free of the frame a couple of the levers moved a little and a spring shot out. Had I been over carpet it would have been gone for sure. I swept the tile floor with a broom and found it. Anyhow, I cleaned out some peices of grit from the frame and trigger group. Some looked like sand, some looked like carbon. Very small amount in total but enough to jam it up. Never buy the bull about revolvers being more tolerant of environmental factors than semi-autos. They BOTH require care and attention. This happened to my beloved redhawk that was well cared for and mostly only saw range use. [/QUOTE]
