Quote History Quoted:
SO... you failed to explain how to handle a revolver and then let him handle it?
A hard lesson learned, indeed! Never assume someone knows how to handle a particular weapon.
Only once and not violently slammed... probably undamaged.

Agree.
But you need to actually inspect and test for whether there's been damage done to the cylinder, or the cylinder contact points inside the frame. This procedure will involve having your asshole buddy present.
First, make sure your revolver is unloaded .... Then stand next to your buddy while slowly opening the cylinder of the revolver. That way, you can both look it over together ...
Carefully inspect all surfaces and edges of the cylinder, as well as all the contact points of the cylinder latch. Close the cylinder carefully and then check its rotational integrity by cocking and then thumbing down the hammer. Check also to see if there's a tight lockup of cylinder-to-barrel (no excessive "play"), once the hammer dropped. Hold the trigger rearward as you do this.
If all above the above checks out fine, with no discernible issues, then you're ready to proceed to the final step.
With the pistol in the hand your normally shoot with, squeeze hard on the grips, keeping your trigger finger straight and parallel with the barrel. Swing the revolver up energetically, and slam it forcefully against your buddy's forehead being sure that it impacts hard on his brow line - the area just above the eyes. You get extra points if the front sight digs a trench line there and claws up a lot of skin. Ditto if there's also profuse bleeding.
When he regains consciousness, explain to your buddy that in the future he needs to treat all firearms
that aren't his with greater respect.
You can thank me later.
