Frame Lug

[Iggy]

I have an old K-22 Outdoorsman.

The frame lug turns quite freely and can catch on the cylinder when I open it.

How does one go about stopping the rotation?

Peening? Loc tite?

Any suggestions?

TIA

It's originally peened when new. I'd try a drop of locktite then peen it tighter in the frame. Support the frame and lug on a solid block before using the hammer.

If it doesn't work, remove it, then clean all the parts well. Then just use the locktite and reassemble it.

Ok, thanks for the help.

Dealer in Florida has a bunch of the lugs if you need a new one.....

Contact this man- Jerry Rodgers.

He and his partner bought all of the original forged parts that S&W was going to throw away when they switched to mim. They have about 5 tons of parts. I have no dog in the hunt other than the fact that I have met Jerry FTF, and bought from him personally. He is a very nice man, and honest to boot! I have sent a lot of guys over to Jerry from this forum and so far he has helped most all, if not all of them out with exactly what they needed. I almost always get a PM telling me so.
