    Hello oldguy. I am somewhat embarrassed to admit I have never fired a .40 but from all accounts that is the term all use for it....snappy. I have shot plenty of .45 and 10MM with the .45 being no problem and the 10MM being a beast. But carrying a 10MM during hiking or fishing adventures is becoming common practice. It is a formidable slug and especially if using a hot load from Buffalo Bore there aren't to many animals in North America that can stand up to a Glock mag full of 10MM.

    The little pawl that turns the cylinder was defective. I knew the cylinder was a little tight but chocked it up to being new. S&W was very nice about it. Fixed it. They asked me what they could do for me. They did a trigger job on the 340 and I had a model 36 with a scratch on the cylinder. They put a new cylinder on at no charge. 5 day turn around on the 340. 6 days on the 36. I have owned more than a hundred of their guns. Got a little back on that one.

    I know the pawl. I had a Model 29 in the 80's that had the same issue. Didn't totally fail but didn't do what it was supposed to.
