I bought this gun on 03/04/04, it is brand new and has not been fired.
When the yoke is locked closed in the ready to fire position, I have noticed when I hold the grip in my right hand, with my left hand I can move the "locked" yoke side to side opening a gap of approx .003 to .004 between the closed yoke and frame at the front of the gun. From what I have learned over the years, this is not a good thing, correct? I want to bring it back to the dealer but I want to be sure I know what I'm talking about.
The 637 is one of S&W's "promo" economy models and it shows. I should have been more careful the day I bought the piece but like a lot of other folks, I trust a well known brand to be good. My inexpensive Taurus revo locks up better than this S&W.
Those of you who know, please tell me if this is a problem or should I ignore it. If it is a problem is there a name for this condition that I can use to describe what's wrong when I call S&W?
Thanks for your assistance and recommendations. John
