Couple of possible reasons- your ammo is a different caliber than the revolver (22 Long Rifle will not fit in a .22 short revolver, nor will .22 Magnum fit in .22 LR) or the cylinder is partially blocked by fouling, rust, etc. Frankly, the RG revolvers are generally of very low quality, I would check the caliber of ammo, clean the cylinder well- and if that does not fix it, I would move on. Value of these is typically lower than an hour of gunsmith time.
A revolver typically consists of several main parts: the frame, cylinder, barrel, hammer, trigger, and grip. The frame serves as the main structure of the revolver, housing the internal components. The cylinder holds the ammunition and rotates to align the chamber with the barrel. The barrel is where the bullet travels through when fired, and the hammer strikes the firing pin to ignite the primer. The trigger is used to release the hammer and fire the revolver, while the grip provides a comfortable and secure hold for the shooter.
First of all describe the gun. Is it a revolver, or a shotgun? A revolver has a grip but so does a shotgun (actually a for end).
The year a HS model 10 22 revolver was made should be stamped on the metal below the barrel on the left hand side of the gun. This will be a bit ahead of where the grip begins.
A bullet rotates in flight due to the rifling inside the barrel of a gun. The rifling creates grooves that grip the bullet and cause it to spin as it travels down the barrel. This spin stabilizes the bullet's trajectory and improves accuracy.
Look on the grip frame under the grip panes and on the bottom of the frame under the barrel.
What model?
The best technique for accurately shooting a .38 caliber bullet in a .357 revolver is to use .38 special ammunition, which is specifically designed for .357 revolvers. This ammunition is slightly shorter than .357 rounds, allowing for better accuracy and performance in the revolver. Additionally, practicing proper shooting fundamentals such as grip, stance, and trigger control will help improve accuracy when shooting a .38 caliber bullet in a .357 revolver.
RIFLED firearms are those that have a method of making the bullet spin when fired. This makes for a much more accurate projectile. The oldest and most common means of doing this is buty cutting spiral grooves on the inside of the barrel. These grooves grip the bullet, causing it to spin as it passes up the barrel. The grooves are known as rifling.
What is the grip made of?
With no more than that to go on, the best I can give you is a range of 300-3000
If you mean a Smith & Wesson Model 629-1 revolver, it is stamped on the bottom of the grip frame. It will be covered by the grips. A secondary SN is usually stamped on the frame under the cylinder crane. Open the cylinder to see it.
To distinguish a square butt revolver from a round butt revolver, examine the grip frame's shape. A square butt revolver features a more angular, flat grip that allows for a larger grip area, while a round butt revolver has a smoother, rounded grip that tapers towards the bottom. This difference can affect handling and comfort, particularly when using different types of grips or holsters. Additionally, the model designation often indicates the grip style, providing another clue.
