Should I bother sending this gun back to S&W again? What would I ask them to fix? I'm not expecting an action job for free, but clearly 2 of the cylinders are not the same as the others. I have other revolvers from them and they do not exhibit this problem.

I hate to say it, but so far this 625JM has been sort of a lemon.
Yes, send it back. Call for a shipping tag, explain the situation, and let them have a chance to make it right (I know, they already had a chance, but...)

It's dissappointing and frustrating to have a gun that starts to look like a shuttlecock, but once the factory has had their mitts on it, the best bet is to have them make right, and make sure they know (in a nice, non-aggressive way) that you will not accept less than that.

Good Luck, and I'm sure you'll like your JM once its squared away ;D
