I dedided to clean it up and go through the internals last night to check for any other problems. I went ahead and cleaned the barrel completely and measured the throats. The throats are all .452". While I had it apart, I took my .440 pin gauge and slid down the barrel to see where exactly the...

So what does a fellow do if he has to order it or buy it online?

....and then you wonder just how many come back screwed up like mine? Of course how many have the proper tools to check for constriction in the barrel? Mine left a tackdriver and came back a shotgun.... Now I have to decide weather to try firelapping it or sending it back for a new barrel and...

And as I go through my paperwork they sent back I find this Would it be because they crushed the barrel? I suppose this is them admitting that they screwed up and telling me they won't do anything about it....

Well, I don't really know what to say at the moment. I "had" a revolver that shot nice little cloverleafs at 25 yards, or near cloverleafs with different loads, about 6" to the right of poa due to a canted barrel. Now I have one that patterns at about 6" with 3 different loads, that it shot well...

I took your route and had the same results. Waited 8 days and called again yesterday. Within 30 minutes of the second call I had my email with the shipping tag. The guy at S&W said they were really busy at the repair center as they are getting a lot of guns returned now.

Yes I have been watching my spam box as well. I suppose that if I don't receive a response by Friday, I will call back in and see what the hold up is.

A week ago I called S&W customer service about returning my 625 JM for them to correct the canted barrel. With the rear adjusted all the way to the left, it still hits to the right. Looking down the top of the barrel, you can definitely see that the sight is leaning to the left as if the barrel...

I have a like new with box 632 and I never get around to shooting it so I was considering selling it and the 300 or so rounds of brass that I got for it. I am having a hard time finding them for sale on Gunbroker to get an idea of the street price for them. Any ideas on a value of these?

What are the rifle and ammunition restrictions for deer hunting? There are no firearm, caliber, or magazine capacity restrictions when deer hunting on private land in Mississippi. There are certain firearm and ammunition restrictions on some MDWFP Wildlife Management Areas and US Fish and...

MDWFP - Hunting Rules & Regs Pretty simple round here :)

I love mine, though I have not shot it much yet. The DA pull feels a bit stiff, but the SA release is great. Of course I will probably never fire a round DA. My only complaints are the rear sight elevation screw and the thumb latch. The elevation screw seems like something that belongs on a...

Don't buy the hype about the weak brass. 45 Colt brass is just as strong as any modern cartridge. I used to read all the time about how folks loaded hot loads once or maybe twice in brass, then relegated it to light loads. So I decided to test some brass for myself. Here is 45 Colt brass after...

I think there are a lot of wimps in the ranks :) I didn't find the recoil that bad even with 300gr bullets over a case full of H110, wearing the wood grips. What killed it for me was the fact that you have to send it back to have the blast shield replaced so often when you shoot "my" type of loads.

I'll take them. PM incoming

I suppose I am the exception. I was disappointed in the lack of recoil considering what I had read about it. I would have loved to keep it, but I couldn't stand the thought of having to send it back in to have the blast shield replaced on a regular basis considering the only thing I would shoot...

Yes they cover the backstrap.
