Col Del Rio Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Greetings, The locking pin spring (#13 on many diagrams) on my 110+ YO 1897 went flying off into the brush. Looks like I gotta find another. Anyone know of a place to find one? I lost the spring and still have the pin (#12) but if they come as a pair I'd get both. Or does anyone know of a good work around/substitute for the the spring? Thots? Co. Del Rio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
