Smith & Wesson K Frame Military & Police 1st Model Lever – 4-Screw, Old Style

A rare factory-original lever for the earliest production K Frame revolvers. This part was sourced from a Military & Police 1st Model revolver (Serial# 3312) chambered in .38 Colt — one of the earliest S&W hand ejector revolvers ever produced. The lever (cylinder release latch) is the component you push forward to swing the cylinder out; on these early 4-screw revolvers, the part geometry differs from later production and correct-era replacements are extremely difficult to find.

About the M&P 1st Model

The Military & Police 1st Model (introduced circa 1899) was one of the first S&W swing-out cylinder revolvers and the direct ancestor of the legendary Model 10. Early production revolvers like Serial# 3312 predate the model number system by decades — if you're unsure whether this part fits your specific revolver, contact us with your serial number and we'll help confirm compatibility.
