Hi,
I have a 4 Inch Model 10 that I bought new a while back, its one of the newer +P rated guns. Anyway, I finally got around to test firing it, and had something very wierd happen to me. I fired one 50 round box of Winchester 125 gr JHP +p, no problems at all. Got into my second box, Winchester 130 gr FMJ, and half way through the box, the trigger pull became light, and it seemed as though the trigger and the cylinder were operating independent of each other. The cylinder quit turning, but you could pull the trigger. I opened and closed the cylinder, and it started to work again, but the pull was so light it wouldnt fire the rounds off. When I had the cylinder open, you could even pull the trigger back-very odd. I closed the cylinder again, and the revolver started working just fine. It continued to work well for the rest of that box, after which I quit. The revolver was quite warm, could this have caused it? Or could it just be a break-in thing? The revolver seems fine now. Any opinions?
