I don't have "The Book" in front of me but I believe that as .22, .32, and .38 K-Frames all have the same length cylinder. .22 Jet and .357s are longer. A Model 17, 18 or 48 cylinder can not be fitted to a Model 53 .22 Jet. That is why a .22 LR cylinder for a Jet is three times more expensive than one for a 48.
cmr...so how have you been enjoying the Model 48?
