I have an older model 19-5 from the mid 80s I believe. Ive only had it a few months. One of the chambers in the cylinder gets a really bad stuck case when firing 357 through it. Stuck to the point I have to use a rod and a mallet to knock it out. I spent a good amount of time with a brush and some cleaner to make sure it wasn't a carbon ring buildup but no matter how much I clean the chamber it still gets stuck.
It will extract about a 1/4 to 1/2 and inch with the extractor then it is stuck. Like I said before, I cant grab it out or even pry it out. It requires a rod and mallet.
I dont see anything obviously wrong with the chamber.
Is the revolver to old to send back to S&W? There are a couple really good S&W gunsmiths locally, should I just go to them?
