When it wears on a S&W, the bolt won't drop into the locking notch before the hammer is released.<br /><br />From what little I've seen, the N-frame .357s are more often found to have bad timing. Something about the rotational mass of the cylinder in fast operation can damage the hands of those guns. <br /><br />Revolver gurus have told me that in heavily-used revolvers, Colts tend to go out of time more often. And they are far more expensive to fix, as good Colt gunsmiths are scarce these days.
