Back in April I turned my revolver over to a gunsmith (he has a shop) for a minor repair (cylinder latch release was worn out), he has not completed the work as of today. He said big problem getting parts. The gun is a Charter Arms Police Bulldog 38 Spl. He had me pay $75 up front to tear the gun down and diagnose the problem. I have a bad feeling this guy is lame. Stopped in his shop last week, asked about the progress on the gun, he showed me the gun disassembled in a ziplock bag, he said still waiting on your part. Feedback from others that have knowledge of him say he is a "crook".
