Both times I removed the hand and stretched (peened the sides) to bring it back into time. 50 years with S&W and I've never had to do that.

I have thousands of rounds through my 1979 Python that I bought new. It's tight as a drum and perfectly in time, even when cocked glacier slow. There are no absolutes, and I never trust statements that indicate absolutes, like all Pythons, or most Pythons, go out of time.
