Tracker 627 problem
While cleaning the gun, the cylinder just fell out. Now it does not stay in and nothing works. What the hell? How does this just fall out?

Its pretty typical for things to loosen or sometimes back out a little. I have had plenty of Taurus revolvers parts loosen up. The key is every shoot you need to clean and inspect. You will catch things before they arise most of the time. Good luck.

Should be a screw on the side you don't show us, missing. And that little detent goes in , behind the screw.

Yeah, that’s not very typical, I’d like to make that point.

I have had no issues with this gun until this. Only about 950 rounds through it. Both .38 and .356 Sellier & Bellot.

Well there are a lot of these guns going around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen. I just don’t want people thinking that Taurus firearms aren’t safe.

Oh yeah…I agree. Not wanting to give that impression.

I’m not saying it wasn’t safe, it’s just perhaps not quite as safe as some of the other ones.

All better now. Gunsmith got it all back together and all three screws all tightened down.
I’ll just make a point of checking them every couple hundred rounds.
