Apparently Rossi has issued a recall for some .38 and .357 revolvers due to them not being drop safe. The link to the article is below.

Darn little info about "why" there. We need some handgun expert to explain. Especially since Rossi has boasted, in the past, about how safe their revolvers were.

It doesn't say much does it? It could be a metallurgical issue or a geometry issue in the parts involved.

If it's metallurgical issue, no problem. Just install new parts.

If it's an geometry issue, it needs a redesign, new parts being made and installing them.
