Hi I bought an early S&W model 1905 last week. Upon disassembly, and cleaning 112 years of dirt and gunk under the side plate, I found the rebound spring was broken. Also the timing was off just a tick. So I want to replace the hand and cylinder stop. I checked Numerich and Apex and found some parts but I don't know if they are compatible with the 1905. Most of their parts are listed under frame designation k,j, etc. Or under S&W Military and Police. Is the 1905 a k frame, please excuse my ignorance? Also are there any other parts sources out there?
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Joe

Jack Firsts ( SP ) . Never had them send me the wrong part . A friend stopped when in their country said the place ran on file cards and produce knowledge . No school like the old school .

Jack First is a great family owned source for obsolete or hard to find parts:

There are several versions of the Model 1905. Be sure you tell anyone you ask which version you have. Hands may be easier to find. There are three versions if I remember right. Don't remember how many versions of cylinder stops.

When was yours made?

And yes, it is a K frame.

I was told it was an early 1905 and shipped in 1906.
Please help with date and info

Those early K frame revolvers almost every part was hand fitted.
There were even variations in the diameter of the Hammer stud in the frame.
