Question on cylinder stop
Hello All,
Put a power custom oversize cylinder stop in my 29-2. It is now as advertised, very tight. However, it will not operate in single action. There is resistance when I try and cock the pistol. Double action works perfect. It can be cocked single action with a little pull on the trigger prior to pulling the hammer back.
The stop will require a little fitting. Does anyone have any idea where I need to stone? I don’t want to remove material in the wrong location.
Thank you in advance.

First, I don't know what your level of skill is and if you don't know what you're doing - don't mess with it. That said, most, if not all, major replacement parts for a S&W revolver require fitting. First the ball of the stop has to be fit to the cylinder notches and it must be fitted to the slot in the frame and etc. Take it to a good pistol smith or send it back to S&W.

My mechanical ability is very good. However, I have never done this before and really do not know what needs “fit”. Your advice is sound and off to a gunsmith it goes.
Thank you for the replies.

I can't see the part so I can not tell you where to stone it. If it is simply too wide, stoning it against its side should do it, but again it is something that must be seen and measured to really know. The best thing is to compare it to the Factory part and go from there. The Cylinder lockup should NOT be super tight and SOME play is needed for reliable functioning. Unless there was something wrong with the original one, I would have left it in there. If there was something wrong, I'd have replaced it with another Factory part. Too tight is just not good.
