I was out shooting a couple days ago and my 3 screw Ruger Super Blackhawk started jamming. I messed with it for awhile with the cylinder out and figured out that the transfer bar wasn't popping back after a shot was fired. I found that if I cocked it while pointing up like with a black powder revolver, it would work fine.
I haven't dug into it yet but I took the grips off last night and flushed it out with Ed's Red to see if it was just dirty but it seems to be the same. About half the time the transfer bar slides up and jams under the firing pin.
I'm concerned about tearing it down but not because I lack the skill but rather it's in near perfect condition. I know it's been upgraded because I have the old parts from the transfer bar upgrade but it looks like it's never been apart.
Any suggestions?
