I received the new Walker. Clean before shooting, the manual says. Directions: remove wedge in front of cylinder OK. Place gun in half cock OK. Place cylinder in a position so the the ram is between cylinders OK. Remove cylinder/barrel?------Not OK. How do I get the cylinder out to clean it? Help, there has to be a trick.
 
after you remove the barrel wedge use the loading lever against the cylinder to push the barrel off the pins, then the cylinder slides right off
 
Sometimes the wedge looks like it's out but it's still in there a little bit,
The wedge needs to be straight when it's all the way out,,
 
If your barrel is a tight fit on the arbor, you can slip the flat handle of an old toothbrush between the ram and the cylinder face to prevent scarring the web between two chambers as you use the rammer to lever the barrel off the arbor.

A couple or three popsicle sticks would also work.
