Ummm.... I've actually seen similar pictures involving brands other than Taurus...


I have an '82 vintage 669 I bought in '09 (IIRC). Only put a couple hunnert rounds through it before I discovered S&W but no issues. As nice & crisp as a P&R Smith? No, but none of my S&W were $300 OTD. I was aware of Taurus' spotty QC & CS issues but I figured any issues would have been already resolved after 27 years.
