[QUOTE="xSMOKExLESSxCRACKx, post: 833431, member: 5913"] I've got an old(70s-80s) Rossi .38 thats been taking up room in the safe for a while now. I bought it off one of my co-workers about 6-8 months ago. I've taken it out shooting a few times now and then with no trouble. However the last two times I've run a few bullets through it, every few cylinders it will "jam up". I'll go through a few rounds and then on the next trigger pull everything seizes. the trigger will pull back about 1/8" or so and thats it. This ONLY happens when actually firing rounds through it, never when dry firing. A few tugs on the trigger or thumbing the hammer a bit and it seems to let go and work fine. I have shot both Remington Express and WWB through it with the same problem. I've also noticed that on some of the spent cases the primers look like they've been pierced by the firing pin of the hammer. Would the pin actually be getting stuck in the primer:anyone: Any other thoughts on what may be causing this and/or how to fix it? [/QUOTE]
