    The cylinder on my new-to-me SP101 was not spinning freely, so I decided to disassemble it to give it a good cleaning. Probably a good thing, as I found a small bit of surface rust under the Hogue grips. I took care of that and followed a couple of youtube instructional videos that seemed to show how to take it apart fairly easily. I am not the most mechanically inclined person out there, but it seemed like it would be simple enough.

    Long story short, I got the gun back together but something is not right because when I pull the trigger the cylinder will not advance. Some time spent on Google came up with a warning about not pulling the trigger on a removed trigger housing, which I accidentally did at one point, which made my transfer bar (I think that it was it is called) fall out. I was able to put that back in, but I wonder if something small (like a spring or something) may have fallen out.

    I was planning on getting a trigger job done on the SP anyway, so I thought that a local gunsmith could fix what I broke at the same time.

    Does anyone here have a recommendation on someone who does this kind of work in the Houston area? TIA.
