One possibility with the old Colt's is that it may be possible to make a shim washer that will fit over the cylinder crane shaft.
So I don't confuse anyone.......
The older Colt's made years ago had a flange on the cylinder crane. The cylinder collar seated against the flange.
This makes it at least possible to install a thin washer to correct end shake.
Newer Colt's did away with the flange and space the cylinder collar directly on the frame just under the barrel.
You cannot install a washer on the newer style cranes.
Also, in NO Colt DA revolver can you drop a washer into the cylinder shaft hole like you can a S&W.
Putting a washer in a Colt cylinder will wreck the cylinder and possibly the frame.
