Yep, that's it! I'm thinking it might be a better bet to trade this *** in on something rather than playing roulette on getting a decent gunsmith at SW. Am I giving up too easily?

I took a photo of the offending part, printed it, circled it, explained what was the problem was in a note next to it. Have not had a chance to determine if problem still exists as ranges are closed, I believe in my area. When I received the gun back from SW it had paper work indicating they...

Thanks everyone. Jury is still out on this. I guess I'll try some more brands of SD but if the problem persists I'll trade in on something that works.

Not sure what to think of this so I thought I would see what you all thought. I bought a Shield40 back in 2015. I have had nothing but problems with it ever since. The main problem I have it the panel that covers the firing pin slips down preventing the gun from cycling correctly. Seems as long...

I was kind of afraid that might be the case. Thanks everyone.

All, A friend of mine just bought what I believe is a Model 10. The person that sold it to him says he thinks it was originally blue but was chromed. I asked him to open the cylinder and give me the number. That number is 8828. No Model number, according to him. I then asked him what the number...

I'll give it a try. Thanks.

Ok guys. I'll try another SD round. What have all of you had good luck with?

I'm having a similar problem with my Shield that I bought in February. As soon as I got it home I disassembled it and went through it cleaning it thoroughly of any debris it might have picked up at the factory. I've been feeding it Winchester white box and Hornady Critical Defense(different...

18DAI, what holster due you use? I've got a 1006 and a 4506-1. Trying to find a holster that will feel good now that we are getting CC in the People's Republik of Illinois.

Dant, When would you put the time of manufacture at? Also, if you do have the owner's manual what would you want for it?

Wow. I was just going to post about this exact subject but you beat me to it. When my wife's grandfather died I acquired his shotgun, an Eastfield 916-A, made by S&W. Looks like a police riot gun that has spent some time in a cop's trunk with that well worn look. Other than that everything...

Hello. I'm new to this site so please be gentle. Some time ago while looking at gun porn on Gunbroker I came across an early RM that was given to a judge who was retiring in Evansville Indiana(I think). I thought it was absolutely gorgeous. It looked like it was nickel plated with a 4" barrel...
