This part was sourced from a Military \u0026amp; Police 1st Model revolver (Serial# 3312) chambered in .38 Colt — one of the earliest S\u0026amp;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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e MPC12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smith \u0026amp; Wesson K Frame Military \u0026amp; Police 1st Model (4-Screw)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCaliber:\u003c\/strong\u003e .38 Colt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lever (Cylinder Release \/ Thumb Piece)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4-Screw, Old Style\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blue Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProvenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sourced from Serial# 3312\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Used (factory original)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gunsmith fitting recommended\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFactory Replacement Quality\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGenuine Smith \u0026amp; Wesson factory part from the correct production era — same dimensions, same fit, same reliable cylinder release function as the original.
