loose base pin
The base pin on my Vaquero .45 Colt, seems to move forward out of the notch after a few rds, I found out the problem after I was unable to cock the hammer , or sometimes, the cylinder would not turn. I'm thinking about buying a BELT MOUNTAIN cylinder pin, maybe the Sheriff model. Need some advice on that. Thank you, Dan

I found that replacing the Base Pin spring did the trick on my Blackhawk.

Had the same problem with mine. I bought a replacement pin at brownells.com and it is now held in with a set screw. Great fix, low prices, wonderful company. I would recommend them.
