Smith Wesson 460xvr

I have a question on the 460XVR revolver looking at one but the cylinder when closed has a lot of wiggle to it not firm / locked at all. Now I am questioning about getting it the quality. Should it be that loose ?.

Wiggly

Lock-up should not feel loose, should be
"S&W bank vault tight".

I handled a 460XVR at the Indoor Range once.
The owner's Revolver was not firing occasionally.
Turned out to be the ammo.

Should be others chiming in later.

Yes I agree with lock up, my other Smith Wesson revolvers are also all tight locked.

Before buying it, I'd call Smith. See if it can be fixed under warranty?
