Source for Citori parts in Western Canada

[boltaction]

At the club this weekend I couldn't get my Citori back together and the problem was the cocking lever lifter wasn't moving out of the way. I took it apart and the problem is this tiny little spring (inventively called the B1334138 EJECTOR SEAR / COCKING LEVER LIFTER SPRING, TYPE 2-3) which had broken, gotten munched and jammed the lever. I can get the gun together and functioning now but do need this stupid little spring which is like about 1.5mm wide and maybe 8mm long (hard to know with part of it missing). Does anyone know who in Canada would be likely to have a piece like that?

Thanks! I emailed them and am waiting to hear if they have it.

I suspect mine has the same issue as the lever does not stay locked over to the right with the barrels removed during assembly/disassembly. It's just a matter of holding the lever to the right as you install or remove the barrels. It works perfectly once assembled though for firing, ejecting etc. I was thinking about contacting WGP too to get the part. I think the spring blew out when we used compressed air to dry out the receiver after giving it a good cleaning in a varsol tub?

The problem with mine isn't the main action lock lever. It is that insignificant looking little piece of metal on the underside of the barrel set that engages the underside of the cocking lever and lifts it to #### the hammers when you break the action open. It slides back and forth pretty smoothly, and has to; if you uncock your gun and then take the fore-end off and peel the gun apart, the lever slides forward and then the hammers don't #### when you do that. When you go to reassemble the gun, that lever has to then stay out of the way of the cocking lever or the barrels won't close. Mine was jammed because of that damned spring so I couldn't get the gun to close. Spring is now en route to me. I have attached a photo of the two pieces of the spring--amazing what a tiny little part can mess up!
