My newly arrived Mk1 has two broken springs.
- Lever, Extractor.
- Spring, Stop, Trigger.
Apex has: extractor levers Mk111 & MkVI ; & trigger Mk111.
Will any of these parts retrofit to Mk1 ?.

I was trying to wait for Skennerton's book to arrive, but, there is a parts auction closing soon that I may need to bid on if the above wont work.

Apex wont ship barrels or Cylinders to Canada.
They told me small parts other than the barrel and or cylinder were AOK.
Unless they changed there rules recently.

That 455 webley parts set on GB thats what you want ;).

Watch out alot of the MKIII and MKIV parts listed at Apex are for the smaller 38 cal webleys and wont work on your gun.

Always ask before you bid if there for 455 cal or 38 cal frames.

As of at least 3 months ago Apex won't even ship you screw for a trigger guard, nor will they take your canadian credit card and have it shipped to a US location. "No international orders" in highlighted red letters is the current website partyline.

OK Good to know i was going on older info.
I think Numrich still ships up here but they hose you on shipping.
again no barrels or cylinders but i have bought springs for a MKVI Webley.
He should just buy that parts set on GB that guy lists Canada OK i dealt with him before he is Ok to deal with.
Theres a Early MKII or MKI Cylinder on there to not cut for 45 Acp someone up here should buy that to.
 
Yeah ,
Seems my first best bet is that parts auction.
Sure hope it doesn't exceed my limited means.
Next trip to Ellwood's will perhaps bear fruit.
I still dont know if any later mark parts could work in the Mk1.
Perhaps some of my snowbird friends could source during their winter sojurns,as a last resort so to speak.
 
Try Western Gun Parts in Edmonton.

Well here's how it worked out.
Made up the 'spring stop trigger' from a piece of band saw blade.
Found a mk IV 'lever extractor' on G.B. and with a touch of stoning it works perfect.
I'm happy as a clam gettin' handloads together.
Thank you all for the help.
