The UPS man just delivered a box containing one perfectly timed revolver from...............Smith & Wesson

Well done S&W!

Please post when your Taurus comes back to you, just for comparison.

That's an unusually long turnaround time for Smith and Wesson---7 weeks.

Interesting. I just got my Taurus auto back after 10 weeks. They didn't even work on it.

The final word...

My Taurus was just delivered today. Not quite a week later than S&W, Taurus has returned my gun which was not carrying up on two chambers. Now it still fails to carry up on one chamber after they've had a chance to make it right. It does seem to lock once the trigger goes full rearward but the hammer falls before that point is reached in slow DA cocking and in slow SA, you must pull the trigger to get the cylinder locked in place. Again, the hammer seems to fall before that full rearward travel is reached. I'm kind of bummed. I wasted 50 dollars shipping them this gun for repair. I guess I'll just shoot it until it's unsafe and send it back again and hope they fix it right then?

S&W got it right one week faster than it took Taurus to still get it wrong.

I wish bets had been taken on this because I knew from the original post that S&W would turn out to be the winner. Heck, the S&W gun could have been abducted by aliens and lost in space only to have a better turn around time and a complete repair; whereas, the Taurus gun could have been hand delievered to the President of Taurus himself for repair and they would have still bungled the repair job and taken weeks upon weeks, months, maybe even light years and still would have never been able to complete the repair and deliver the gun on time: even though they could instantaneously transport the pistol right into the living room after the repair was half done, but "ready" for "beaming out".

Wow ...I am so sorry

I sure wish these guys would get it right
Hang in there, all of us are pulling for you

Although I stated in the beginning this was not a controlled experiment, I am still disheartened to see that Taurus did not correct the problem on the first time around.

You cannot conduct this experiment under a controlled environment. I think his point is to just find out the turn around time for this particular time. If it were too controlled then it would be useless information... for this particular type of experiment. As this is not scientific.
