I emailed S&W customer service, asking if they would bring their product into SAAMI spec compliance. Their response:

"Dear Robert,

We would like to thank you for your e-mail and contacting Smith & Wesson / Thompson Center.

Your firearm was produced 1955-1957. This revolver is a bit older than we would normally work on. You will need to find a local gunsmith for assistance."

OK, I get that.

Not sure what the effect on chamber/cylinder pressure is with the miniature throats. It is not a +P revolver and I do not use +P commercial ammo in it. I am seriously considering the cylinder honing option...have heard nothing but good about Doug at Cylinderhone. Thanks all for the comments and suggestions.
