New Cylinder Release

New Cylinder Release

Recently picked up this 85UL as a special, missing several parts including the cylinder release. 30 minutes in the shop and had a new firing pin spring and retainer pin, then started the cylinder release. I 3D printed several prototypes until I found a damn near perfect feel for me that’s grippier than the original. Figured I wanted it permanent, so I had a batch made from nylon and installed it on my 85UL and tried them on my trackers, 605, and raging hunter. Seems Taurus uses the same footprint across models, as do Heritage revolvers. Gotta say the matte black looks nice with the stainless finish lol. Anyways, thought I’d share and see if anybody else had experience with aftermarket cylinder releases, or any other Taurus revolver mods.
