well...i don't know crap about working on wheelguns since honestly my Rugers never need more than a simple cleaning but i pulled the sideplate off. there is a little rod thingy which is pictured that was floppin around. There is a groove for it in the backside of the plate and i placed it back into the groove and it jams again. With the afor mentioned "rod-thingy" removed and the plate off the gun will fire and operate normally. I just don't know how it needs to go back on.
