Decided to test out my RG 38 snub with some 125 grain Blazer +P loads. I have fired 3 +P rounds before when I first got it and everything worked fine. Anyways I decided to rapid fire a whole 6 yesterday and felt some spit on the 5th round. Tried to open the cylinder and couldn't so I let it cool off for and hour. I figured I was pulling too fast so I loaded up 3 more rounds. Bad Idea. Ended up blowing the barrel off and splitting part of the frame.

Question is can a gunsmith fix it?
