Thanks, this means I have another one wrong.

The revolver recoils, too (7)

I was sure this was shooter. Too recoiling ie going backwards??
rotator ? -- I don't have this crossword so don't know what letters you have

Here is another that must be wrong!

Jack fish, you say (5)

- - i - e

My first thought was SPRAT then SNIPE but if ROTATOR is right, it must start with R.
raise (to jack up) - sounds like rays/fish
