Cooey 840 parts

[ndb86]

My Grandpa's old truck gun sat in my Dad's safe for decades and now it's in my safe. I want to restore it, but before I tear it apart to redo the wood and reblue it, I need a few parts. The main one is the spring is gone that holds the forend on. Does anyone know where I can get one?

Also anyone have any tips on how to get the old stain and laquer out of the checkering? I think I'd like to redo the wood with tung oil.

Circa 1856 wood stripper and a old toothbrush to remove the old finish.Western Gun Parts in Edmonton should be able to fix you up with parts.

Thanks! They look promising. However if anyone else has other options for me I'd appreciate it!

All sound advice. Only I want to add is to make sure you get the Circa 1856 stuff and not the knock off stuff that Rona/Home Depot carry. It is crap.

And where would I find that stuff?

I think Numrich has parts for that shotgun. At least they used to. My FIL has the exact same gun and I got him a firing pin for it. Shipping and export fee is ~$45 so find some people that need parts from there too.......

Either Lee Valley or Windsor Plywood. Not sure what's in Lethbridge but any place that specifically caters to woodworking should carry it.

This is why I love CGN. I'll be sure to pay it forward to someone else in need of a part from my drawer.
