Revolver Timing Issues - Fitting the Bolt

Sometimes revolvers have issues regarding the fitting of the bolt to the cylinder. The peening of the cylinder as the bolt comes down too early and putting an ugly dent into the notch is a common problem with many of the Uberti and Pietta percussion cap revolvers. Careful modifications can remedy the situation but each revolver is different and must be approached as such. Don't forget to buy extra hammers as you will destroy some if it's your first time. It's not voodoo or black magic, just some careful modifications.
