Function & Importance

The hammer stirrup is a critical component that connects the trigger to the hammer mechanism. When you pull the trigger, the trigger bar engages the hammer stirrup, which in turn cocks and releases the hammer. This part is essential for proper double-action and single-action operation. A worn or damaged hammer stirrup can cause trigger pull issues, hammer function problems, or prevent the revolver from firing reliably.

About the Victory Model

The Smith & Wesson Victory Model was produced during World War II for Allied military forces from 1942-1945. Based on the Military & Police (M&P) design, the Victory Model was chambered in .38 Special and featured a parkerized finish for durability in combat conditions. Over 570,000 Victory Models were produced for the U.S. military, British Commonwealth forces, and other Allied nations. These revolvers are highly collectible today and represent an important piece of WWII history.

Installation Notes

Professional Installation Recommended: Disassembly and assembly required to replace this part. Some parts may require installation and fitting by a qualified gunsmith to ensure proper function and safety. Proper fitting ensures smooth trigger pull and reliable hammer operation.

Identifying Your Smith & Wesson Model

To determine your revolver's model number, swing out the cylinder and check behind the yoke on the frame for a MODEL NUMBER. Model numbers began in 1957-58. If there is no model number, your revolver may be a pre-model (pre-1957) Victory Model or M&P. Contact us with your serial number if you need assistance identifying the correct parts for your revolver.
