Please disregard this post. I just found a previous thread that addresses the issue.

Thanks to everyone for all the very helpful replies! I'll be going to Brownells to check out that tool! Thanks again!!!

So very true! I should have known better! I do now! BTW..... All 400 rounds were factory Federals. I'm lucky I did not damage the gun by forcing the cylender in, or out for that matter. I'm somewhat embarrassed that it was such a simple problem!

Stainz, You've got to be kidding me!!! I read your reply and thought..... "there is no way this could be and ejector rod problem" "maybe Stainz just doesn't understand what I mean or perhaps I did not explain myself very well" That being said...... Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! You...

Just bought a new 625 JM. I took it to the range for the first time today. After about 400 rounds the gun malfunctioned. I could not close the cylender after I reloaded. So I took the moon clip out and tried another. Even thought they both looked fine. When I put the new moon clip in, I checked...

Does anyone have some suggestions and even perhaps pictures of a leather holster for a 4" 625 JM? I would prefer one without the thumb brake, but so far the only picture of a holster I can find is on S&W's web sight and that is a Galco with the thumb brake. Any thoughts or suggestions from...

I have been considering my next gun purchase for the last month. I was looking at the 317 Kit gun, a model 17, a model 63, and even a TRR8. However I kept coming back to the 317 for the following reasons: It was super light and I have nothing like it. It is a .22 so it's really cheap to shoot...

Perfect. Thanks for the replies!

Has anyone ever bought a Deluxe Moonclip Tool from Mooncliptool.com? If so what has been your experience? Is it a good product and a legitimate business? I am hesitant to send a check to an individual instead of a business. His name being Clint Walker doesn't reassure me much either. Any...

Please tell me this isn't so!!! I was in there Sunday and asked if they had a sale coming up! I was told no! I thought maybe they would for Presidents Day or the IDPA Winter Nationals. Do you mind me asking what you paid for the 317? I have been looking at the 317 3" Kit gun with the high viz...

Nice picture of a really nice looking revolver. I was just looking at one today. Even though you took a nice picture, it really doesn't do the gun justice, I'm sure you agree.

So very, very true!

Jack, Thanks!!! This maybe a real possibility due to the way I grip the the gun. I have a S&W 1911 9mm Pro Series and never had a problem like this. But with the 3" it sounds like it could be the issue. I can't wait to get to the range tomorrow to test this out!

This is an example of what happens

I had this for about 2 months. I bought it new. The problem happens with all three magazines. I have also tried a standard 8 round 1911 magazine with the same results.
