Help:  A friend of mine has jusdt come into a S&W model 53 22 Jet and of course he is a collector only and is looking for the cylinder inserts and the 22 l.r. extra cylinder that goes with it, If anyone has any info on this handgun or where the parts can be located please let me know where,  Thanks in advance.  JIM

Jim, the inserts come up on flea bay now and then, or at shows. Chances are they will be around the $65 75.00 figure---anything less to a large degree, snap them up. :) The cylinders, were fitted to the guns, and numbered as such. THAT, will be a hard find. A ' collector" who wishes these items, would do well to find a COMPLETE gun, and rest assured, the price will have gone up accordingly. In ADDITION, and for a collector, this is a biggie-- That is the cleaning kit, to be intact, it must contain a tapered swab. The last one I saw on fleabay went for something over $100.00  :eek: Oh yes, there is the 'RED TAG", as well.  Good Luck! :)

Tusker thank you, he has already located a set of inserts, I believe about $90.00, and we were wondering about a regular S&W 22 cylender if it would work, need to check with a competent smith to see, again thank you. :D    JIM
