Thanks, guys! Hoping it just needs a little more attention from the factory. I also measured the BC gap. It measures .001 at full lockup and .0015 with endshake factored in. Seems very tight to me, going to mention it in my letter to Colt. I know for Smiths I prefer a .004-.006 BC gap as I’m more of a defensive shooter, and am okay with as much as .008 as long as the gun doesn’t spit lead.

Another thing I forgot to mention is the gap between the frame and crane, or the lack thereof, as it is virtually seemless. Excellent job there. I also plan to compliment them on the DA pull, it’s straight up dreamy guys.

So yeah... here we are. Most things are extremely well done on this revolver, but it’s got those problems. I’ll post a transcript of my letter to the factory tomorrow when I draft it. The shipping label should be in my email box tomorrow according to the Colt rep.

Expect to be informed every step of the way and I’ll post a meticulous response once the gun is back.

Stay tuned, gang!
