Gummed-up Action? [message #14000]

After shooting my stainless Encore in .44 mag configuration last year I put it up in the safe with just a light wipe down. Upon taking it out this year I found the action to be "gummed" up such that the action would barely break open and the hammer would barely fall with no snap. I used a liberal amount of CLP and got everything functioning but after a trip to the range today I'm getting FTF light primer strikes every few rounds or so. Anyone ever have this happen? Do I just need to disassemble the action and give it a thorough cleaning? Appreciate the feedback.........
