Hi All i have been given a webley mk 6 revolver but there is a problem. The trigger locks and won’t cock. If you break the gun the trigger works ok in both single and double action but when closed the trigger locks. Anyone seen this before?

We're a friendly bunch of guys, so feel free to ask any questions you want and we'll do our very best to help you out.

If you're needing any more information on posting pictures to the forum then go HEREAll that's left is to officially welcome you to the forum, so...

If you break the gun the trigger works ok in both single and double action but when closed the trigger locks. Anyone seen this before? I know that you were pointed here by one of our fellow members, who was that buddy ? As for your problem, it sounds to me like the problem lies either with the cylinder pawl/hand not being able to index the cylinder correctly and that's causing the action to jam up. I'd check that the cylinder is rotating correctly (by hand with the action open and try again with the action closed), if it's sticking or jamming then I'd remove the cylinder and make sure it's well lubricated and free to rotate. (I'd suggest opening up a new thread in the 'revolver' section with this question as the opening post) co2-handguns.freeforums.net/board/3/discuss-replica-revolvers

I hope that has been a help for westcab. I wonder if we'll know? It was certainly a big help for me. Just waiting for the next instalment.

By the way. When I said 'next instalment' I was referring to gunmans advice on how to age the Webley.
