Need advice

[ryhanus]

Was trying to do a full cleaning and i saw this nice huge indent inside. Any ideas, is it something that needs to be fixed? Covered by warranty? Any help would be appreciated.

Does it still shoot OK?

I havent had the time to go shooting since the video, but it didnt have a single miss fire. So i am not sure, since i am broke till next week. But i have never seen anything on there before.

Are you referring to the circular indent at 12 o'clock on the chamber?

It's supposed to be there.

I am referring to it yes, but it hasn't always been there. There used to be a mark from a jammed shell that didn't eject right, but there was never a dent there.

Mine has always been there, I assume it was manufactured as such. Maybe it was full of residue and you didn't notice it?

Can't be a perfectly round, centered dent on accident.

Well i did remember there was one miss fire, but it wasn't me that it happened to, it was my friends gf. And the dent looks the exact size of a bullet tip, unless it double fired or something.

That's what happens when i let a girl shoot my gun, things go wrong or get broken.

Not so sure it belongs there. Mine doesnt have it. I agree with the other guy dent from a round mischambered, maybe?

I wonder in I should just s&w a call and see what they say. I don't want it to cause a problem in the future or for it to ever be unsafe. Ammo wise i have only been using

FED 22LR 40GR Solid Champion - 325 Rnd Bulk Pack
because my walmart started carrying it and I have went threw at least 8 boxes of it with the only 1 know malfunction/misfire. And it has been really accurate for me with my set up.

After a cursory look around the internet, I'd say some folks got 'em, some don't. I'd chalk it up to a slight manufacturing change, like the different shaped extractors we have, the different firing pins we have, etc. Besides, how could a soft piece of lead press a perfect circle into the chamber?
