Random malfunction with my Smith 686

Powder under extractor or loose ejector rod are most likely suspects. Both will cause binding. During a match I wipe under the extractor ever so often. It is tightly fitted, all it takes is a flake of unburned powder.
 
Sorry Y'all, It's been quite the push these last few months with life in general and I haven't been on the form's as much as I'd like :( as an update, although I haven't had the chance to fire the gun since the original post...

the extractor rod is tight, their was a little goop under the extractor which I just cleaned out, it does have the "M" stamp on the yoke by the serial #, and I have actually took the plate off the frame and examined the internals, all seems to be straight/clean as it should be, but again I'm no revolver expert either.

Hopefully it may be just the small amount of goo under the extractor that is causing the issue, hopefully I can get out shooting within the next week or so to see! depending on how the weather stays :P
