Hello, new to the forum. Shot my SAA for the very first time. It is a 2011, 5.5", SN S66xxxA.
I purchased it with the intent on shooting it occasionally.
I am concerned about the finish on the cyclinder because after only 50 rounds, the blue finish looks to have come off near the back end of every cylinder (closest the the forcing cone).
It looks like the type of wear that holster would produce on sharp edges (after years of use) or bluing loss at the muzzle after housands of rounds.
Ammo was Ultramax 45LC 250GR round nose flat point (CB45CN2)
Is this normal for a new SAA after only 50 rounds? Perhaps a warrantee issue?
I'm a little disapointed that a $1,300 gun would have finish issues. - Thanx for the input
