SxS Repair

[Link82]

Good afternoon oh wise gunsmiths of CGN...

I inherited a SxS with a missing part on the fore-arm, I believe it is called the push rod/release.

I would like to know the general cost/difficulty to get this replaced.

Any insight or recommendations would be appreciated.

Who it was manufactured by would help, but the first place I'd look would be Numrich Gun parts.

It would really help if you folks would put in your location.

If you live anywhere around Vernon BC, Del Selin's likely has the part you need or something which can be modified to fit.

prob a shotgun that was used in Cowboy action and had the ejection guts removed to comply with the rules, if you supply the model & brand there will almost certainly be somebody with those parts in a bag gathering dust.

Spanish SxS from 1962, not sure who the manufacturer "US" would be. Can't find anything online about it.

I will check out that website, thanks for the link.

I guess that would help.

Thanks for the recommendation, sadly I am located in Eastern Ontario.

Google his address and call him. He will either help you or put you onto someone in your area.

It has Spanish proof marks, specifically Eibar, if that helps.

if you have a friend who is a hobby machinist with a metal lathe, they should be able to make the missing part(s)

cheers mooncoon

I thought CAS shotguns had to have external hammers.

You are right of course and I stand corrected....a bit embarrassing not to catch that myself.

Your SxS was made by the now long closed Spanish gun builder - Hijos de M. Bereciartua.

The US code in front of the serial number indicates Hijos de M. Bereciartua as the maker who made better than average shotguns out of Spain.

Eastern ON where? Could make you one, I'm NW of Ottawa, near Renfrew.

Actually, i have to correct you and myself again, Pump shotguns require hammers but double can be "slick" except in some of the different categories like "frontier cartridge" that require hammers on doubles.
