The crane yoke on a Smith & Wesson revolver is part of the cylinder assembly, connecting the cylinder to the frame of the gun. It allows the cylinder to swing out for loading and unloading. The yoke is typically located on the right side of the revolver, pivoting at a hinge near the frame. In contrast, semi-automatic Smith & Wesson pistols do not have a crane yoke, as they utilize a different mechanism for operation.
