Product Description

This custom-made cylinder release is designed for the Smith & Wesson J-Frame line. The Recoil Rider cylinder release has a larger contact area and a steeper angle, making it easier to engage than the stock cylinder release. This Recoil Rider cylinder release also features a softer surface to improve conceal carry comfort, since the stock cylinder release can be abrasive on the skin when carrying AIWB.

Features

  • Easier to engage: Faster to operate due to its larger contact area and steeper angle relative to the stock release.
  • Non-Abrasive: Unlike the stock Smith & Wesson J-Frame cylinder release, this cylinder release features a softer surface that won't irritate your skin when carrying your snubnose revolver AIWB.
  • Lighter weight: 70% lighter than the stock cylinder release, shedding a total of 0.09 oz.
  • Compatible with the entire S&W J-Frame line, including S&W Ultimate Carry, 642, 442, 637, 638, and 340PD.

Weight Comparison

  • S&W 642 Airweight (stock cylinder release): 0.127 oz
  • S&W 642 Airweight (Recoil Rider): 0.037 oz

Fantastic carry release!

This cylinder release solves a lot of comfortability issues for me with j frames, giving more room for your thumb.

It functions great, seems like it will hold up long term, and most importantly, it looks super cool!
