    Looks like it rotates CW, so that puts S&W out of it. Are there grooves in the cylinder to hold the extractor star in place, rather than pins? Also, there's not much area for a case rim, and it's not relieved for moon clips either. Either you miss measured, or the cylinder throats vary immensely. Interested too see where this goes.

    Morning and thanks for the interest.

    If you look at the second

    picture there are what I would call small nipples at 9 and 3 o'clock.

    It would hold the star in place. I did not notice them till you asked ☺☺☺
