Converting 32 HE to a snub
I have a 32 HE sn 103673 that I bought to steal some parts off of for my 32 Target. After that, I put the HE back together with some left over parts and all works as it should. The finish on the barrel has some minor issues, so got the idea to convert it to a snub.
I bought a 2" barrel that looks to be off of a model 30, and an extractor star and extractor rod for the 2". The HE has a right hand threaded extractor rod and the replacement is left handed.
In disassembling the extractor and extractor rod I noticed that the old rod has a flange on it and the new one does not. I know I will have to shorten the center pin, but will the newer extractor parts work with the old cylinder?
It's not that I need to do this, I could just sell the piece, but I thought it might be fun to put this together.
Thanks in advance.
