I just looked at three different guns of mine that were within easy reach. Two were K frame .38s, and a .44 N frame. There's a little variation, but that's to be expected based on how that part of the frame is machined. It won't have any effect on the performance. Certainly nothing you'd need to pay to have 'fixed'. In other words, it ain't broke.

Oh, and welcome to the forum.
