All correct.

The barrel we believe is a bit more hard than the slide causing the slide to show more wear. This was also demonstrated in some of our early barrels and we corrected that area of the barrel shown from the factory. Ours do not catch now.

My concern is that S&W is not up to speed with the cause or fix, and the wait time to have the pistol repaired.........
