I've got a variety of single sixes and three magnum cylinders. I think one magnum cylinder actually fits two different revolvers.
But I also have a single six which doesn't have a magnum cylinder. It's actually an old model marked "magnum." If I find a cylinder, do I need to worry about being new model or old model?
And I understand being too short. But if it's too long, is it just a simple matter of making it shorter so it fits? Is there anything else that needs to be done to the cylinder to work properly? And can most gunsmiths do the work?
This is one of those projects I've been meaning to get around to for a while now. The "new model, vs old model" cylinder question has actually stumped me the most. I've not been able to find an answer to this.
