I'd be surprised to find out that the OP was hoaxing us. In all likelihood he got enough answers to move forward and just hasn't been back on the forum. I see it on all the forums. A guy gets a new toy of some sort and thinks he has (or maybe really has) an issue so he goes online to get some answers. Afterwards they have no real interest in hanging out and they just move on. I would prefer that they got back to us telling how the issue was resolved but that doesn't usually happen unless they plan on staying. It's really not uncommon to see guys who have been members for years with only a couple of posts.
Last year S&W asked me for a pic of the problem area on my Model 69. After I sent it, the mailed me a shipping label right away. I got lucky with the phone camera. Seems odd they didn't ask the same of OP, esp something like no rifling.
