The cylinder alignment has me curious, these are the factory cuts in the cylinder and an unaltered cylinder stop. I had also purchased a spare cylinder stop, so if I have to do anything modification wise, I will have a backup. I will sit down with it and see what gives, I never fired the gun as a .357 and never bothered to check bbl/cyl alignment when I got it.
When you say interest, has there been a .327 Renaissance? I haven't read the forum for months, I am guilty of hanging out on the Colt Forum feeding my other addictions (a Colt in .327 is in the works :twisted: ). Just so everyone knows, I burned out on gun work and had to take a break, now I am back to my old tricks.
