I have been reading another post on the forum where they said the pinned barrels were a bit of a problem for S&W on 25-5 revolvers.
How could I check that? I think the problem was accuracy so I guess I can just go shooting.
Look at that I answered my own question but if you have some more information about that I would really appreciate it.

PS I have also been reading that pinned barrels were more expensive to make and that is why S&W stopped making them.
They were saying how pinned was better than not.

I am sorry if i seem silly with my questions and comments but I mostly collect WW2 stuff so this is a totally new area for me.

So far from what I can tell, this is a GREAT forum.
