Could it need lubrication or is there some other issue that could be causing this problem.

Also, she says the caliber is S&W38/200. I have looked this up online and found some not so straight information. Is this the same as a 38 S&W round or is this something different?

Thank you
Could be just a lubrication problem, could be something mechanical.

The S&W 38/200 is the 38 S&W with a 200 grain bullet. Standard British military load.
