Anyone else seen one? Waiting on a replacement part to come in.
Wonder how common this is.
Better picture to come later.

Given that the 52 has been out of production for some time I've always been concerned about a part breaking on my gun & not being able to find a replacement.
 
Try Wortner Gun Works Ltd, 433 Queen St Chatham, On. N7M 5K5. 613-746-4094. I have bought parts for a Model 41 from them. If he doesn't have what you need, he may be able to order for you. My dealings with them have always been A+. Last email address I have for him is wortner@bellnet.ca. Don't know if that is current though.

I login at Numrich and had no hassles getting parts I need since. Much easier than not having a client status with them. Price, shipping, exchange rate and availability is another matter.

Came back together just fine.
Only hassle was drawbar wouldn't go back in without removing the trigger adjustment screw in the frame.

Sear would not engage and hammer not fall until trigger screw was setup properly again.

Frame should be upside down when inserting disconector.

Easier than I feared, but an extra set of hands and a bright light help.

Disassembly and reassembly instructions.
Note that drawing is for first model M52, slightly different to M52-1 and M52-2
Drawbar, Part #54 is stamped on 52-2 as in pictures in above and part #55 is not used in later models.
