i just picked up a new bulldog from a dealer and had a problem with it. out of the 5 chambers, i couldn't fit rounds into 3 of them. there was a problem with the star where the little triangle tabs were misshaped and had burrs, and prevented the rounds from seating. charter wanted me to send in the gun, apparently at my expense for them to inspect. i decided to have a local gunsmith fix it and he did charging $35. after taking it to the range and firing 30 rounds through it, both factory and reloads, i do find the cases stick a little during extraction.
