Try this, take the barrel off and the cylinder out, place the barrel back on the arbor turned sideways and push it towards the receiver. The base of the barrel should be even with the receiver base when you can no longer push it forward, if it goes further and overlaps, then the arbor isn't seated properly, the tip must be shimmed to get the barrel to stop dead even with the receiver.
