I inherited a Colt Lightning in 38 from my Grandfather a few years ago. From the limited search I have done, it looks like it was made in 1909. The action does not work correctly, the cylinder sticks in both single and double action. I have pulled the cylinder and it looks like everything is working correctly with the cylinder removed. While I never intend to shoot it I would like it to work as it should.

I am aware that these have a particularly fragile innards so I do not want to go at it myself. I would rather have the pros do it.

This will be just a semimetal wall hanger.

Any recommendations on a Colt smith?
