Thanks a lot!

will do, Correct me if I'm wrong but I see a dash in "642-1"

Yep, agreed. I still can't believe how long it took me to dig out the truth though!

I decided to call S&W customer support line one more time and got lucky this time! The rep told me they are aware of this issue and he said that it has to do with the way they screw the barrel in the frame. In a lot of cases the barrel became tilted by a small amount - enough to give this...

I'll be sending my SECOND BG38 back to Smith&Wesson. I'm really tired of it - I just want my money back at this point.

Thanks! I know. S&W needs to recall all of those bodyguards and really try figure this one out instead of sending us replacement guns and hoping it will solve the problem. P.S. I shot my friends steel snub nose S&W without the laser and I hit the bullseye every single time at 25 feet.

I tested my new bodyguard today. Very disappointed - this one has the same problem - high and to the left. I asked one of the range guys to try it - same thing. At this point I wish I could just get my money back... Very very disappointing experience!!!

S&W didn't end up repairing my revolver - instead, they sent me a new one. Not quite sure what that means... Was the old one actually bad? I just got it and haven't had a chance to shoot it yet... I'll post my results as soon as I get out to shoot it...

I sent the BG38 to S&W for an inspection. Hopefully, they'll be able to track down what causes the problem.

Thanks for the clarification about the charge load and such. I requested a recall of my revolver from S&W last week and still waiting for them to send me the shipping label. I really hope they can figure it out. I can't trust a gun that is off. Especially if it's called the Bodyguard...

You mentioned a particular way S&W regulates their sights. Can you elaborate on that, please? Yeah, I agree, different loads might change the elevation but the windage is beyond my comprehension. Somebody suggested that maybe the bullet is still in the barrel when it starts moving due to the...

Actually I was using non P ammo. American Eagle

I have a similar issue with my brand new BG38. It consistently shoots high and to the left when aimed via fixed sights. Here is a pic of my two targets from last Sunday, The one on the left is at 15 feet and the one on the right is at 25 feet. Two-hand hold standing up. I found an article...
