the striker (since its a British gun) should be a cakewalk for anyone decent with a lathe
my advice is don't have one made have at least 3 made- maybe 4 (that is what I did for the Wm Moore & Grey when the left broke) - then get a horn striker box and keep a spare pair in the case the way it used to be done Tom Carter did a retaining screw for a British gun for me- the threads were not an issue for him |
Thanks for the information. I had forgotten Tom Carter's name he made me a trigger plate screw several years ago for my Watson Bros. Engraved and perfectly timed. The gun is a wonderful old scroll engraved bottom lever gun. A firing pin and the screw and she will be shootable.

make sure that the new pins are heat treated or case harden, I case harden them , the softer metal inside keeps them from cracking by being to brittle.
