    I appreciate the responses.

    I've been on a bit of a revolver kick and recently picked up a 686+ Talo and I've got a 640 no dash .38 sitting at my FFL / waiting for the 31 day period to expire :mad:

    The gun that might need some work is the 640. It's been carried and used but overall, it's in very good condition. I did give it a quick look over while I was picking up the 686 and noticed some endshake. I didn't have a lot of time with it but the cylinder also seemed to have a bit more side-to-side play than typical.

    I'm really looking for an experienced gunsmith to go through it and address anything that might need to be done to bring it back to "like new" condition...minimize the endshake/tighten up the lockup, replace all of the springs and screws, and possibly glass bead blast it as well. 

    I was doing some searches and ran across BC Armory's "Ultimate Duty Tune" package https://bcarmory.com/smith-and-wesson.html which seems to address anything that it might need at a very good price but wanted to see if there's someone local that could do the same so I could avoid the shipping costs.

    Budasac, I'm pretty sure that I looked at that exact rifle a few weeks ago.  Was the seller's name Andy?  If so, I decided not to buy it since the barrel was quite loose and I was concerned that there might be other issues with the rifle.  I'm hoping that he either had the barrel tightened before he sold it to you or made you aware of the issue.
