Check the spring that powers the cylinder locking bolt. With the gun unloaded slowly cock the hammer and closely watch the cylinder locking bolt pop up. It should snap up early in the rotation and ride the lead in notch into the bolt cut. Or you can remove the cylinder and press down on the bolt. You should be able to feel the spring's tension. It should snap back up as as fast as you can get your finger off of it. Often these guns will come out of the factory with machining chips in the action which can cause parts to drag and hang up. ALL Rugers should be totally diasassembled when brought home and flushed out and deburred. Ruger is really bad in this dept.
