Jager 1873 .45 Single Action Look alike.

[SUB VET II]

Where can I find parts for my Jager 1873 Single action look alike. The spring that assists in rotating the Cyl. broke. Have a Numrich Cat. but no Jager parts listed. Thanks in advance.

I guess you are talking about the hand spring. Breakage of this spring was a weak part of some of the Italian SAA clones. It should be an easy part to find with an internet search.

Thanks Johnny P. Yes I do believe thats the name of the part.

I would thing that spring from any clone could be adopted to fit. But they are usually crimped in, making it difficult to replace. May have to replace the whole hand!

Please excuse my ignorance but; Where on the internet does one search. And yes I believe the entire "Hand" must be replaced.

Look about 3/4's way down and there are two hand assemblies.

Dixiegunworks.com-repo parts-revolver. Or you can make one from a feeler gage. Had one brake on a 44/40 model. Sold gun, now wish I had not.
