I bought this at an auction at an o.k. price, it looked good in all the pictures. Only after I received it, I noticed the chamfered chambers. I will clean the gun thoroughly, fit a Ronnie Wells brass grip frame and a nice pair of walnut grips. I am still good with it, but can someone guess why it would be such a good idea to chamfer the chambers? I can't imagine that it enhances speed reloading much, there are other more effective ways to do that.
BTW: The chamber to bore alignment is excellent.

It actually looks like those chambers have been sleeved.

I thought so too at first, but the other side of the cylinder is normal. The chamfering goes in about 3-4 millimeters. I cleaned it, fixed the base pin lock and put 28 rds through it. Everything works fine so far.

cause they were out of round?
