Thanks Old Fluf and Driftwood I appreciate the information. I'll try the spring when it comes and compare it to the old broken one. Thanks again.

My 32-20 S&W Isn't my pistol, S&W, SN 45539 an I Frame rather than a K frame? Old West Gunsmith has a picture of parts and mine looks exactly like the I frame pic. I've ordered the extractor spring, but maybe I should order the extractor also. Any comments?

Found a spring Thanks to the HighRoad forum for good information on my old revolver. I found a spring at Numrich. I'm looking forward to reassembling my pistol and shooting it again. I appreciate the resources you all mentioned and the good advice. Have a blessed day.

Perhaps I guess I'm too much of a fix-it person to resist taking something apart. I was hoping that the forum and participants could suggest a source for help, not just criticism for doing something about a rusty old revolver which is a dear heirloom from my grandma.

More info on my 32-20 I found the patent dates on top of the barrel. They are: Smith and Wesson Springfield Mass USA PAT'D MARCH 27.94. MAY 21.95.AUG.4.96 DEC 22.96.OCT.8.01.DEC.17.01.FEB.6.06 Can anyone tell me the model number? Thanks. Doug

What's my revolver model? Anyone help me find my model number? I'm trying to find parts for my S&W 32-20 6 shot revolver with 5 inch barrel. I think it is a K type, with SN 45539. It is a nickle plated revolver with Winchester CTG on the barrel. Help would be appreciated.

Retractor spring broke Thanks for the replies. I did find out how to get the cylinder out. The extractor was very dirty, so I took it out to clean it, but getting it out and back in the spring broke. Now the pistol is back together without the extractor. I'll have to knock out the pin that...
