Default Parts Identification Help Needed

I came across these parts in a box that a retired gunsmith had and they looked familiar even though what I was looking for and found were some 60-70's factory screwdrivers of which I found 3 of.

Anyway these parts were also in the box the gave me along with a set of MOP grips that fit my early 38 safety hammerless.

I believe these maybe 32 or 38 DA parts although because of one reason the hammers and triggers are nickle plated and I thought all of the original parts were blued/case hardened I am unsure can you help identify? I tried to take the best photos I could of them and I hope it helps.

Thank you in advance for your thoughts.

It is tough to ID parts without any perspective or size comparison. The firing pin looks like a 38, so best guess is 38 Double Action. I also think the 3rd & 5th Models had a different cylinder stop design than the one you show.

These appear to be S&W DA parts, however I question the "nickel plated " label. S&W never nickel plated hammers or trigger guards, they were casehardened. Repo catalogs of S&W parts, circa 1900, are available on Ebay and will identify each of the pictures parts by S&W part name. Ed. ( Gary, What firing pin ? "I don't see no firing pin " Do you mean the hammer nose on the two hammers? )

That was (nickel plating) the main part of my confusion on these parts...Oh well Having parts is better than having no parts for these older guns...
