.
I am having a strange problem with a Colt 45.

I just bought a used Colt 45 Pietta at Pawn-1 a couple of days ago for $159.99.
It cocks and dry fires nicely. (It is an Italian Import brought in by Cabela's and
retails for $350 - $400 at Cabelas.)

And?

you have the cylinder rod in too far and it is on safe...therefore will not fire. did i guess your problem correctly???

If it’s worth a post, it should be worth your telling us what the problem is with the gun! Help us out here..........
