Thanks.

I've had to send most of my new revolvers (s&w and rugers alike) back to the factory at least once to get things right. My SP101, brand new, has so much endshake that the cylinder nearly touches the forcing cone. (.004 endshake), and .002 bc gap with the cylinder forward.

I had a model 69 that had a barrel sleeve leaning to the right. and, too much endshake.

I expect, when I buy a new revolver, to have to send it in for a warrenty repair.
