Several years ago I bought a new CAS model 1872 Open Top and did a couple of club shoots with it. As I reload, I was looking at the spent cases and noticed that each case has a small spot each in the same place. It looked like melted brass, however the cases did not stick in the chamber. I took it to a gunsmith and asked the question "whats up with the spot?" Turns out it had a pin hole in the cylinder. I sent it back to the factory thru my dealer, they did not send the gun back to me but sent an up graded model with a fancy fireblue finish in .44 colt caliber. Not even the same caliber. It had such a beautiful finish I figured I was ahead of the game.
