Picked up a nice, original leather-covered flask in need of a couple fixes to be fully functional:
- spring needs replacing (the original broke at the spring screw)
- one of the side suspension rings and its mount is missing

Know of anyone who can do this work for me? Here's a pic:

 
I don't know who to send you to to do the work for you but it is possible that Dixie Gun Works may have the parts that you need. Here's an examplehttp://www.dixiegunworks.com/product_info.php?products_id=12211 I don't know if it is the one that you need but, if not, you can simply search through what they have and see if they have your parts.
 
I can't say for sure but TOTW or DGW might have some parts that might work.

If you do any modifications make sure they are not permanent and completely reversible.

Keep your old parts if replacing any parts, so you will have the original flask as a whole.

Other than replacing any parts with newer manufactured parts, you may have to make your own or find a metal smith to make you some parts without doing any damage to the original flask.

Good luck.
