HELP!! with S&W 632 re-assembly

[gman183]

Hello,

I disassembled my Smith and Wesson 642 .38 spl for a detailed cleaning. I have managed to get the frame internals back together but have really screwed up the cylinder and cant figure out what I did wrong. It is in many pieces and I need help. If you know what you are doing, I will pay for your assistance. Please type or call me at 818-535-4824.
Thanks, Trevor.....

That's going to be a little tough over the phone, but you may be able to figure out the parts arrangement by looking at the schematic (642, 642-1, 642-2).

At least someone who can help you over the phone will be able to refer to "the gas ring" or "part 68" rather than "the taller of the roundy thingys that has a hole in it".

(You really should have Kunhausen's book if you're going to tear down to that level.)

Good luck (the book is really worth it.)

If you're willing to make the drive to L.A., I'd be happy to put it back together for you. I've worked on dozens of S&Ws, quite a few for various calgunners
