The way you phrase your post makes you sound like you really care whose cylinder spins the longest, as if that makes a difference in how the gun will function.Unless the cylinder really is binding to the point where function is impaired, there's no problem. If your brother has a 642 whose cylinder spins longer under controlled test conditions, then that's what he has--a cylinder that spins longer under controlled test conditions. That's all.*If that says to you that your 642 is somehow broken, by all means go and have it repaired.If what you described were an issue that needs to be addressed, some of the other revolver experts on here would be chiming in to recommend what to do. They haven't done so.Block me if you wish, but don't ask me to not post.
