I am going to learn more about the inner workings of

The one I picked up needed a little work too. I was hesitant taking it apart but it isn't too bad. The ejector rod was binding and I thought it was because of a slight bend. I straightened that and sill had the problem just not as bad. Turns out the return spring was binding too. Got that straightened out and then worked over the mainspring. Someone bent it and when trying to fully cock it there was a little resistance. Like a S&W with the strain screw backed too far out. Got that straightened out too. I was going to order new parts but so far made due with what I had.

Only thing left is changing the front sight out, because the old one is mounted crooked and maybe Taylor throating it. There is virtually no forcing cone.

They are neat cold revolvers.
