Korth Mongoose question

I have a new Mongoose that shows the following issue: on a closed cylinder with only moderate pressure the cylinder can be made to turn clockwise. You cannot do this with ccw torque. I notice the cylinder stop slots in the cylinder have very little edge on lead side but a flat wall on the ccw side. With pressure you can rotate by hand cylinder in cw fashion and see it ride over and push down the cylinder stop. Turning cylinder ccw the stop hits the slot wall and doesn’t over ride.
When cocked it won’t rotate nor when trigger is in pulled position . It functions flawlessly and is incredibly smooth. I read somewhere this is a normal characteristic but can remember where. Any input would be most appreciated. Thx

I would call Korth. I would think that a revolver in that price range would have very good customer service!!!!!!!!!!

Hafta speak German for that. Korth is sold in the USA by Nighthawk, mostly manufacturers of 1911 type automatics. Good luck.
