Rebuilding the 1894 Remington Double

[David Henry]

This is a cry for help ? I tried a post in the Parts & Bits forum but came up empty handed. Is there a chance any of you gunsmiths have a 1894 parts gun under the bench. I am currently working on a vintage side by side project and have no pattern for the locking bar and top lever spindle etc. Any leads on this are greatly appreciated, regards David Henry.

I have that 1900 that I was going to bring you in June to tighten up. Is it similar enough to do you any good?

I do not know the answer to that ? But I expect that they may be similar however I dont get to see to many of them so thats just a guess. D.H.

I'm hoping to drop by June 12 to pick up that 20g. Ithaca. I'll drop off the Remmie and you can play with it a bit if you like.

Cheers,

Dan

Stupid question on my part, but did you try Dixie Gun Works?
I was able to pick up some old stuff there.

I've got one with a cracked forend David, but the rest of the gun is pretty sound.
I will call you today and we can talk.

Got busy today Partner and never did get a chance to phone you.
(polite cop for "I forgot"! )

I will get back to you though.
I have shot this gun, it is sound with a lock up as tight as a drum!
