Forgive me for saying so.... But I'm a revolver guy, been shooting S&W revolvers since I was a kid back in the 70's. When Smith came out with the internal lock in spring of 2000, a lot of the "purists" hated them for it's looks more than the function. Only until recently do we now hear "stories", mostly online of the Internal lock causing malfunctions and like social media, facts become twisted with fiction.

I have yet to see a internal lock on a S&W revolver malfunction. Everything else, well, ya heard it on these forums. Which to me, 99% of it is baloney.
