need lock mainspring made

[pchwcf50110]

I have a Navy Arms Rigby Creedmoor Match rifle made in Spain. The lock main spring broke a couple weeks ago. I ordered a couple of "fit it yourself" percussion main springs from Dixie Gun Works. None of them have the correct dimensions or the pin area extra steel in the correct location. Does anyone know who could make a main spring for this lock? Thanks

You can drill a new pin hole, done that before, adapting good springs to CVA's etc....a thought....

I believe it's TOTW that you can order a catalog from and it is to scale which comes in handy for buying odd parts.

I know I would also prefer a hand forged replacement, but if you need or want to get it shooting quickly, you might contact Richard to see if a replacement is available.

Dixie Gun Works has a ton of old, oddball parts that they don't catalog. You can send your broken spring to them and they will check to see if they can match it up. Might best to call and talk with them first though.

I also have had good luck with Dixie matching springs. :hmm:
