i just bought a used uberti cattleman .44 spcl
and the firing pin is loose. it wiggles around. does not look right to me. i see a tiny screw on the hammer. does this screw have anything to do with the firing pin retension?? any help would be greatly appreciated. newbie needs help. thanx in advance.

:( :confused:

These poor fourms are visited so little...

In case you haven't already figured it out, this is normal on the Uberti - the firing pin is supposed to float like that. Apparently this is true to the original Colts, but don't quote me on that...
