Need help identifying spare revolver cylinders

grapppa · January 6, 2025, 06:40 PM

From the left 1) Is a .38 long cartridge and has a German Nitro proof 2) is .32 cal 3) is .38 long.

#1 has an ejector rod that I just cant identify since it has an indent at the end and does not have a knurled knob that you frequently find. As I understand, post war .38 Victory revolvers were used by Germany... Un-numbered cylinder

#2 seems to be a much cheaper quality design

#3 is 3 digit numbered

Far Right 22rf cylinder looks to be from small frame SA, German made. Many use same cylinder, same gun sold under many labels.

#3 (Far right) is a .32 H&R 733 .32 cal S&W Long Revolver early Chrome finish
#2 (middle) is a Clerke 1st Model, Cylinder and Crane, 5 shot, 32 S&W

Thanks for your help
