a few weeks ago I bought a gorgeous .357 Uberti Lightning from a guy in the Victoria
Fish & Game club. Unfortunately I was so excited to find one that I did not inspect the gun well before buying it. it appeared to function "ok" was a little stiff sliding the action back and forth but I figured that it was just because the gun was so new..... wrong, i have put only 50 rounds through it and now its so jammed up that i can barely push the slide back into position. I have cleaned it out and lubed it with g96 -4 times, I cant seem to find any good tear down instructions on the net other than one page that has very poor instructions and no pics/video. there are screws on the gun that are damaged which tells me that this guy had the gun apart ( he swears that he hasnt ) . so to recap, it is hard to pull the slide back and near impossible to get it to close. any one else have one of these ???
cheers,
