Hello

this is a solution.

Tonight I broke my M500, but this made me learn something:

The cylinder lock (this is the part that protrudes out of the frame at the bottom of the cylinder) makes sure that there is coaxiality (alignement?) between the cylinder and the barrel.
Most of the cycling problem come from something wrong at the cylinder lock level.

My old 357 TM had this problem, and I remember the cylinder lock was wobbly.
Tonight the lock on my 500 broke (tanks to Tanaka's CHEAP CRAP POT METAL ), and the exact same problem I had on the 357 started appearing.

So next time your revolver behaves weird, look at the lock.

good night everybody!
