I was drifting out my old rear sight and putting in a new rear sight on my Uberti 1873 and somehow rotated the barrel on the action and now it’s misaligned with the receiver. Now the action won’t close. Im so upset I’m sick.

Details man, we need more details. I bet it’s something simple; every Uberti ive messed with seemed super tight.
How far out of battery is it? I highly doubt the barrel got turned while installing sights.Last edited by TacticalCowboy; 05-25-2018, 10:08 PM.

Big vice mounted to sturdy tabletop, delron spacers to reduce scratches, pipe wrench or crescent wrench of correct length, and you are set.
Seriously, good luck at the match with backup. I absolutely agree with TacticalCowboy!
But just wondering.............how big a boy are you? Because you put some torque on that barrel! We may be kinfolk since that looks just like something I would do!!!Last edited by Tejas Wildlife; 05-26-2018, 12:23 AM.
