[QUOTE="RickN, post: 3163868, member: 8854"] I have worked on a few revolvers doing minor repairs and internal cleaning before and never had a problem, but this one is driving me nuts. It is an old Taurus M66 357 that I have had for years. My wife claimed it a few years ago and kept it in her side of the headboard. I got her a smaller revolver like she has been wanting and got my 66 back. To make a long story somewhat shorter, swinging out the cylinder is very stiff for some reason. I removed the side plate to see if I could find the problem without luck, and now I can not get the side plate back on correctly. It is a 4 screw model and I have gotten the hand in the slot with the little spring loaded plunger and lined up with the trigger just fine, but for some reason the plate will not seat all the way and I know better than to force it. Everything seems to be in place and fully seated so any ideas might help. [/QUOTE]
