Hi, I recently purchased a Ruger SP101 2" Revolver, Used. I noticed when I got it home that the little piece of metal thats below the cylinder catches the tail end of the cartridges when I try to eject them. Can I take a dremel to this and sand it down so the cartridges will clear it? It also seems to kind of grab at the cylinder when spinning it if the muzzle isnt pointed downward.
Also - is the cylinder release supposed to be kind of stiff? I have to apply more pressure on the cylinder while pressing the lever then I remember on other revolvers.
Whats a good way to buff out the scratches on the gun to give it a newer looking finish?
Aside of these problems, this little gun is amazingly accurate, I'm in love.
