Info Needed
 

I just bought from my next door neighbor a S&W 357 magnum, it doesn't say what Model it is or what type of frame. Need your help to figure this out.

Will post pics Very Shortly.........

When you open the cylinder, the model number and serial number are stamped in the valley area. Sorry, I do not know the correct wording for the parts areas yet.
That's where they are on mine.

cylinder "crane"..i "think" is what it's called

Skosh is correct, Clyde .
swing out the cylinder and you'll see it on the frame just under where the barrel starts


..L.T.A.

Yes, he is right got myself a S&W Model 19-6............

Clyde

Okay, it's a K-Frame 357magnum. the -6 indicates it probably has the dreaded Lock on it right by the cylinder-release( Which I can tell you later how to remove,Shhhhhh.)

I have a Model 66-62-1/2" bbl. the SS brother to yours, it had..er...has the lock on it.

Dave,
There is No Idiot Lock on mine.
