My hunting buddy has an Uberti Single Action revolver in .38/.357. I don't know which model it is but he has had it for 10 years or so.
He brought it to me the other day and said it would just not fire. I looked it over and did not see any problems.
On the hammer below the firing pin is a spring loaded piece of metal. I am not sure what it's purpose is but I suspect some type of inertia safety?
I wiggled around on the firing pin pulling it out and in by hand and then tried to fire the gun and it fired perfectly twelve times in a row.
Any one know how that firing pin works and if there is a problem I should be looking for?
Thanks!
