Several weeks ago I purchased and new S&W 1911 Stainless steel. When I went to fire the first round I incurred a light primer strike and the gun did not discharge after several tries it finially discharged and the bullets would not chamber properly had several jambs. I returned it for repair, new barrel was installed an supposedly everthing checked out. My and concern is as follows. With the magizine full I chamber and eject the round I notice on the rim of the case indentations deep enough to catch my finger nail. Is there an acceptable amount of indentation or should there be no signs or marks. Is there any need for concern. I have not shot yet since the repair. My experience is with revolvers. I am just starting to learn about the autos and I am loving it, I got the fever. I have learned so much on this site and appreciate the Camaraderie.
