Smith & Wesson K Frame Thumb Piece & Nut Blue Steel Old Style - Used - 17179D
$22.99
Smith & Wesson K Frame Thumb Piece & Nut — Blue Steel, Old Style
Open your cylinder with confidence using this factory original blue steel thumb piece and nut, pulled from a Model 17-3 .22 LR revolver. The thumb piece is the lever you press to release the cylinder latch — a high-touch component that sees wear over time and is worth replacing when it becomes loose, pitted, or damaged.
This old-style blued assembly is a direct fit for vintage and classic K Frame revolvers and interchanges across all K Frame models regardless of caliber.
