Cures Cylinder Endshake Problems; Eliminates Hazardous Lead Spitting
Hardened steel jaws swage and lengthen the gas ring for a tighter frame-to-cylinder fit on single action revolvers. Corrects extreme cylinder wear or stretched frames; improves the fit, function and accuracy. Also helps diminish excessive head space caused by chambers that are cut too deeply. Requires only a heavy duty bench vise; no need for expensive machining or lathe work. Fits Ruger single actions with ¼" diameter base pin. May be adapted for use on Colt 3rd generation and other cylinders with integral gas ring.
SPECS: Steel, hardened contact points. 2" (5cm) long. Kit includes stretcher jaws, support pin with handle and lapping sleeve.

Great Tool !(22/11/2013)
I bought this a while back and just got around to using it on an Old Model Ruger Blackhawk that had bad end shake. The tool quickly and easily stretched the gas ring very slightly oversize using surprisingly little effort. I used some wet dry black oxide paper to bring it back to a perfect fit. The gun now has Zero end shake.
