Those issues were resolved as "USER ERROR"!

Too much dry firing broke the firing pins and improper trigger operation caused the light strikes. The DOA trigger is set up to duplicate the feeling of a revolver, The J Frame" to be exact, and require a full pull through not stacking the trigger by partial pull.

The issues you refer too are all internet mythology and found to be baseless by S&W engineers. There was no improvement required just some customer education.

Go rent one at your favorite range and you will be in for a very pleasant surprise I am sure. After 50 years of J frame carry, I switch to one for weight and conceal ability and just love this little beauty! Light and thin and it slips right into my back pocket.

Life is good!
