Diamond Curly SASS#57086 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 I shot my 87 last weekend and when I was cleaning it I noticed one of the two screws that are in the receiver was missing. I tried to find a vendor on line with no luck. Any ideas who may carry this screw. Thanks, DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Jones, SASS 2263 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 From Coyote Cap's web site: Effective immediately, Coyote Cap / Lasergraphic LLC has made the following changes - - - My health has taken a dramatic turn and retirement is now mandatory, necessitating a move to a warmer and dryer climate in close proximity to a Mayo Clinic facility. In accomplishing this move, I trained a new gunsmith on cowboy guns, I moved all parts inventory and customer guns to Ahlmans Inc. (NOTE) - - Ahlmans Gunshop has been in business since 1943 and just recently celebrated 75 years in the gun business. Ahlmans currently have (42) employees, (13) of which are full time gunsmiths and Ahlmans also have a huge gun parts inventory and are factory authorized warranty repair and replacement facility for almost all major firearms manufacturers. This was a well thought out and "Good News" move for all our old Cowboy Action Shooting customers. Ahlmans website is as follow - - - www.ahlmans.com Ahlmans shipping address is, Ahlmans Inc.

The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Are these the 2 screws the 2 parts of the carrier pivot on? If so, use Cap's info. IIRC , that shop is run by his son. When you install them, use a sm drop of blue locate. OLG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Dead Ed Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 I was going to suggest Numrich, but they don’t have 87 screws in stock, I saw a few for 97’s but that won’t help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rillito Red Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I lost one between stages at a match. 20 minutes searching with a 5 lb magnet and I found it. Good thing, too. It was an original gun and the screws weren't available anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
