Night Guard Question

[Whiskey Dave]

Hello all!

I have a question about my S&W Night Guard 44 Mag.

The cylinder moves slightly, "lateral" movement not End Shake. Is this normal movement? Or is the lockup not as solid as it should be? It's got about 50-60 rounds of 44 mag out of it total.

Normal. That is to say, a few thousandths is normal, and it is supposed to allow the bullet to self-align in the jump from the cylinder to the forcing cone. If your not experiencing any bullet shaving or spitting, and accuracy is good, then everything is as it should be.

Oh, and Welcome to the Forum!
