Smith & Wesson K Frame Cylinder Stop & Spring – Old Style
This factory original Smith & Wesson K Frame Cylinder Stop & Spring (also called the cylinder bolt) is a critical timing component that rises through the frame to engage the cylinder notches, locking the cylinder in perfect alignment with the barrel at the moment of firing. A worn or broken cylinder stop causes cylinder timing failures, skipped chambers, or dangerous misalignment — making this an essential replacement for any K Frame repair or restoration.

Installation Note
Cylinder stop replacement requires side plate removal and timing verification. Professional gunsmith installation is strongly recommended. Improper installation can result in dangerous cylinder misalignment. Always verify cylinder lockup and timing after installation.
