Smith & Wesson K Frame Model 66 Cylinder & Yoke Assembly – .357 Magnum, Stainless

This factory original Smith & Wesson K Frame Cylinder & Yoke Assembly is a complete stainless steel 6-shot cylinder and yoke unit for the Model 66 Combat Magnum revolver. The non-recessed cylinder design is correct for old-style Model 66 revolvers. The yoke aligns the cylinder with the frame and barrel, while the cylinder houses the six chambers — together they are one of the most critical assemblies in the revolver, directly affecting timing, alignment, and safe operation.
