Commanche Revolver issues
Looks like the cylinder on my Llama "Commanche" .357 isn't turning properly. I noticed it when I was last at the range with it, the firing pin is striking between the edge of the rim, and the primer; making little dents in the cases (glad the edge of the primer wasn't hit, would have shot right into the forcing cone...) This is the first time I have had any problems with it, does it sound serious? And think I can fix it myself?

It sounds like the timing is off, and or the bolt stop is not engaging. Is it over or under rotating?

It seems to be under rotating, it's striking on the left hand side of the primer and the cylinder rotates counter-clockwise (at least I think it does) I'll need to double check that this weekend. It's currently locked up in Dads safe...mines too full of dirty old mil-surp rifles.
