recent SW acquisition, need parts
Posted: Mon Mar 19, 2012 9:01 am
Hi all,
I recently bought a twelve gauge, SW,around 1918 mfg., with 30 inch barrels, decent wood. I knew it needed some internal attention, which I have addressed....
It does not have a trip pin, so I have to hold lever over when closing...anyone out there have one to sell? Also, the screw for the trigger plate is really "gommed up" (a term affectionately used by my 85 year old father-in-law)....the screw slot is about 3 times its normal width...any of these available?
The main problem with the gun, was that the tail of one of the hammers (the part the barrel engages to cock) was broken, and I had it tig welded...plus the sear on that same side was messed with. Anyway, those have been rectified, and I think with the trip pin ( I have a spring), we'll be back in business...the trigger plate screw will certainly help it's aesthetic appeal.
thanks, Terry
