I can tell you about 2 revolver failures I had.

1) I was shooting Sellier & Bellot semi jacketed .357 mag ammo in a Charter 2000 'Mag Pug' SS(.357) revolver. The jacket material was comming off the bullets and wedging between the end of the barrel and the cylinder, jamming the cylinder. I bought the S&B .357 mag ammo for $8/50. I returned all of it for a refund.

2) The ejector rod,cylinder axis rod, whatever you want to call it broke in half one day.(same Charter 'Mag Pug') When I swung the cylinder out to eject the empties, it and all the associated cylinder parts fell on the ground.

YES! I got rid of the 'Mag Pug'!!!

I have an old Charter Arms Undercover .38 spl in SS that has been flawless for years.

So it is possible to have problems with a revolver.

Just my .02, OE
