How do you fix a loose cylinder on a Smith and Wesson model 36 revolver?
Many people mistake a loose cylinder for the normal cylinder play while the gun is in the unfired position with the hammer at rest, the trigger forward. With the gun in the fired position, the hammer having hit the firing pin and the trigger pulled back, the cylinder should be somewhat tighter and not have as much play. This is normal, to have more play in the unfired position and should not be corrected. For a true "loose cylinder" with too much play or movement, you would have to replace the cylinder and yoke assembly and then fit the revolver with a new hand to time the action properly. This requires skill and is not an amateur undertaking.
