I cleaned it up from the other day and it's definitely skipping nearly every DA pull.
I did notice a little bit to much grease on and around the cylinder stop spring when I took the side plate off. I'm wondering if that's part of the problem. Its just so consistent I'm not sure that could be it.
I might try a new hand

Let us know if it makes any difference.
The locking bolt springs arent really very perky.

Well heck.
Does the locking bolt fit cleanly into the notches in the cylinder when its apart? I think Ive had it happen once long ago, the bolt wouldnt bottom out in the notch. Mine wasnt skipping like yours but it was able to turn backwards after cycling with little effort.
Does the bolt move freely in the frame? Like pushing in or down with your finger theres no hangups and drag? You can watch it cycle with the cylinder out by pushing the thumbpiece backwards and holding it.
