1) it could be extremely dirty and if you do not know how to completely disassemble it, then take it to a gun smith
2) the swing out yoke that the cylinder fits into could be slightly bent/torque. Take it to a gun smith
3) The ejector rod that you push to eject the empty cases could be unscrewed a bit and the front part is dragging on the front of the gun frame/barrel housing. Should be able to test it by screwing that rod back in with your fingers. If it screws back in and the gun functions, then bingo. If the rod appears to be at least finger tight, then that isn't the problem.
Basically, take it to a gun smith. You say is it worth it to fix? If the gun is a Ruger, Colt, or Smith&Wesson and in good shape other than the posted problem,,,, yes, very much so. The gun smith should be able to give a cost estimate before doing work or a small fee for a diagnosis. of what all the gun may need.
