My worst revolver was a blues 2” Model 10 S&W that I bought off GB. The seller (a regular GB seller from the Houston area) listed it as a .38 Spl.
When I got It I didn’t realize this was one of the .38 S&W Victory models that had been polished and reblued.... and unbenounced to me also had the cylinder punched out to accommodate the longer .38 Spl cartridge. The chambers weren’t all “bubbaed” so the rechambering job wasn’t obvious.... until I fired the first six rounds and each shot split the cases to fit the .38S&W chamber diameter and wedged them in the cylinder!
I would have dumped that one too. I can't abide by a reamed out 38 S&W "conversion".
In fact , I once had one , I quickly got fed up with pounding out casings , and back it went.
