Rossi Cracked frame

All I can see is the sideplate edges.

Yes, that's all it was. There was no crack. I've fired the gun about 20 times and it shoots good. Thanks for your reply.

Every firearm shoots (and feels) different - shoot it a bunch, get used to it, get a feel for it. I hated the S&W model 64 I was issued way back in 1983 (little gun, fixed sights), but darned if that thing doesn't shoot well now.

Your accuracy will improve with practice. Buy more ammo!

i was gonna post and say that if you had a hot round that would crack a gun it would crack or explode the cyclinder way before it would crack the frame. i had a rossie .44spl and it looks just like that nuthing out of the ordinary . glad the gunsmith cleared it up for you.
