So I recently acquired an older Dutch revolver, it is the smaller officer variant or the 1873 "Old Model" army revolver in 9.4mm. The revolver has some timing problems, the cylinder hammer and trigger will lock up and the revolver will seize up. If I take out the cylinder the revolver will function, if I take off the sideplate and reinstall the cylinder/basepin the revolver will #### and the trigger works in both SA/DA but the timing is a bit off and it will seize again if I open the loading gate and try to spin the cylinder. I tried to get good pics but can get better if needed, the cog on the cylinder looks really chewed up compared to the standard Dutch revolver that I have. Anyone able to diagnose or have a simple fix? Alternatively does anyone know a good smith that can handle some of the older obscure revolvers?
