ethan callahan Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I called Cimmaron they are out. Neumrich only has originals from a colt 1878 hammered double. I sent a PM to the TTN person on here that slicks them up to see if he had any for sale, no reply yet. Does anyone have a Right and Left sear spring for my old poor TTN so she can play with the other TTN's at home? I wouldn't mind 2 sets either... send me a PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickamauga Slim Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Ethan, I can't help you with the springs but I see you are in Nashville? Have you shot with us at Wartrace? If not, you should, if so, sorry i missed meeting you. I've been shooting a TTN for 10+ years, never needed any parts. You've got me to thinking.....

Warden Callaway Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I don't think anyone would guarantee it, but an original Colt 1878 and lock out of a Cimarron 1878 look to be very close to the same. Colt on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colt on top. The difference may be in the lock at the end on top. TTN has a pin that goes through the plate, Colt is more like a Daudsons with a fingernail type hook. You may be able to see it in the picture. Notice how the Colt is up against the ledge as the TTN appears to just float. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Angus McPherson Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 I bought a pair of springs from Numrich for my TTN a couple years ago. All I had to do was shorten the top end of the spring about 1/16" to get it to fit. YMMV Angus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possum Skinner, SASS#60697 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 I sent my locks to Steve Young at stevesgunz.com and he made new, music wire springs for mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, i gave it to the Slix spring guys because they were already making a top latch spring for the TTN's. So, something you should know. You will need to clearance around the bridle where the spring goes under so it doesn't bind the sear movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
