Unbelievable quality control fail - 3 for 3

[Deadeye Dick]

Never thought I would see the day when Taurus revolvers garnered more respect than S&W revolvers.

The S&W Performance Center is no longer in existence. It is simply a name added to specific inventory more or less a marketing item.
I will say it does sound strange to have this kind of luck with three separate purchases. S&W will make it right.
Welcome to the forum.

They can't really make it "right" after making it wrong because they won't compensate for the hassle. When you pay top dollar for a product, you expect to get a quality. It has not happened to me with any Smith products, but if it did, I would be quite sore about it. I wouldn't expect that kind of record from Taurus.
