Its normal on the new style Smiths with the spring loaded plastic tip in the yoke screw. The plastic tip "floats" a bit. Not like how the old hand fit yoke screw would seat and not allow any fore and aft movement. Nothing to really worry about, as long as you dont have endshake you are good...

That'll take a lil doing but its not a dead in the water thing by far What I'd do is very carefully with a rotary tool grind away the screw head so it can be pushed the rest of the way thru the stock since the bushing/nut is already spinning. This will separate the stocks from the frame. Only...

Alex. Also to add. None of those things makes what you have a bad gun. It’s kinda expected after years of use that some maintenance can be needed. The only non normal wear and use / maintenance point is the smoothing of the edge of the center pin

Glad to help anyway I can Alex Yours looks pretty normal for a j frame. You can see a slight rub mark on the frame just below the forcing cone. But it doesn’t look like from the pictures that it’s gouged. If you drag your fingernail up towards the bottom of the forcing cone (as if gun was in...

Looks like the forcing cone was not cut square. Which would give you more gap at top and less at bottom. Having the forcing cone trued up either by a gunsmith or doing it yourself would make a good bit of difference far as the angle issue goes To address the rubbing on the bottom of the forcing...
