I may be completely wrong, but I don’t see the ammo being an issue with the open cylinder not turning.
You may just need to clean the yoke barrel, that term will make sense after you view the video. The cylinder yoke is easily removed. It's held in by one screw on the right side of the side plate just above the front of the trigger guard.. When that screw has been removed move the cylinder release forward and swing the cylinder out. While holding the cylinder in place remove the yoke by sliding it forward out of the frame until it clears the frame and then pull the yoke and cylinder away from the frame together. I am attaching the Youtube video below. The video is long, but the part of how to remove the yoke comes early i.e 10:57; the gunsmith deals with the yoke and cylinder assembly at 45:20. Hope this helps and maybe saves you some money.
Thank you. I will do that first thing tomorrow.
You are most welcome! Hope it works. God Bless!
