Those replacements look to be of thinner wire.... or is it the rust build-up on the originals?

Rich. You got it right too. I don't mind buying a "junker" because after all it is a Parker Bros. Tearing them apart is therapeutic for me. Shooting them, even better. Killing some fine eating roosters - priceless. Cheers, Jack

Was the gun working properly with the broken springs ? I believe that was a selling point for coil springs back when flat springs were prominent.

I dry fired both sides. It takes a lot for a Parker to not function but i like a clean gun inside and out with all parts whole. Cheers Jack

The extra part is the Unhooking slide plunger. There is two of them in the photo. One is attached to its spring and one is separate.
Dean, the part you mention is the locking bolt. Post 1910 style.
