Need help finding parts

I am trying to locate the right side hammer and screws for a 12 ga side by side Parker Bros made in 1885. Im not sure of the model, I do have a picture available. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

We would need a good hi-res picture of the hammer on the left side to be able to match it.

Thanks for the reply. Im not sure how to post the picture on this forum. Is there an email address that I could send them to?

You will need a hammer from a Top action gun. Lifter hammers are shaped differently. Not that one from a lifter would not physically work, but they have a different look to them.

A matched pair is the only way to ensure they are both the same. But for the most part, most top action hammers will hold their own on your gun if bought singularly.

There was however a small amount of top action hammers that were different in style from others.

As for screws, Tom Carter makes new ones that are of high quality. Many used ones are in rough shape.
