  A:

  Michel, Rich D (The post above 07/05/2017) is the same gentleman. S& W corrected the issue. [Cylinder was binding on opening and closing as well as advancing. Unable to fire had to send back to S&W for adjustment. Issue was taken care of it and I am happy with it. Very accurate.]

• Q: Your online advertised price was $666. When I go to your site, it is higher. Can I still get it at the advertised price? Also, it states no manual safety. Does that mean no internal lock?

  • Answered
  • Asked 06/23/2017 17:27 by robert g

  A:

  Yes it has an internal lock. And Buds prices fluctuate hourly sometimes, based on the market. But as Andrew stated, you may be able to request a matching of the original price that brought you to Buds site.
