Self-acclaimed experts on this forum ? I thought this is a forum for gun enthusiasts exchanging ideas. Your picture also illustrate the flat cutout on the 6'0 clock position to make room for the cylinder hinge. It is a fact that the older SW K-frame has a tendency of the forcing cone cracking due to the weakened design. They did rectified this on their recent K-frame to alleviate this problem. Not a self-acclaimed expert in this field, but I was merely pointing out what I observed which seems to contradict Manuhrin's touting their MR73 as the toughest revolver ever made that can endure firing a million rounds with no noticeable damage.
