9mm K-frame?

[Rocketmedic40]

This is going to sound like an odd idea, but I have a question. Is there a way to make a 9 mm K frame? Specifically, something like a model 15 or model 67.

It probably could be done, but you'd have to make a special extractor system, and probably have to add a second firing pin to hold the cartridges in the cylinder. Might as well bob the hammer while you're at it.

The 547...3" and 4" barrel models. Pretty expensive when they do turn up.

Have a Model 15 cylinder made that's relieved for moon clips. Just spitballin' here...

I could see me spending for a model 64 chambered in 9mm that uses moon clips.

S&W has a 9mm J-frame out now if you want to go smaller. I built a "9640" years ago by fitting a factory 940 cylinder to a 640 Centennial. It's a really neat little gun.

Yes, it certainly can be done. TK custom and likely others can machine a cylinder to accommodate the 9mm cartridge and moon clips. I had another gunsmith convert a 686 cylinder to 9mm with moon clips.

I have two 4" with original boxes...Close serial numbers, one with pinned barrel, and one without... ...Ben
