Availability of hammer gun lock parts
Folks, I'm looking at an early-1880s Parker hammer gun that has some missing or broken parts on the right lock, and other issues. Check this one out on GB: 258121627. Mismatched frame and barrels, with some additional stampings on the barrel. Any opinions on this? A factory mating? The sellers says it's reasonably tight and on face, with the lever centered when closed.
How hard would it be to find parts for the lock?
I'm looking for a restoration project gun in a larger frame (3 or larger). As in, puttering-around project, not for profit!
Thanks!
