I.J. 22 Supershot Q...b.goforth? - The Firearms Forum

randyp49 · 11-15-2009, 10:41 AM

Hi All, newbie here,
I have an I.J. 22 Supershot, 7-round, Ser. #K 2647, had it so long I don't even recall where I got it. It is missing the trigger and guard, trigger return spring, other than that it's all there, I think, don't have a schematic, Numerich doesn't list it. The bore is quite good and cyl lockup is not bad. I'm looking for a trigger and guard the 3 pins just to complete it for a wallhanger or even get it shootable. Anyone know if these parts would be out there somewhere? Thanks.

Randy

p.s. A search brought me here and to 'b.goforth'.

Randyp49,
You can easily make any pin from drill bits. Just check the size, cut it off to length with a dremel wheel. Peen down one end of the pin to hold it. Polish the ends, and use Birchwood Casey's perma blue and a qtip to blue them.
Trigger return springs are easy to manufacture also. Use a "flexible" hacksaw blade. Cut it to length using the existing hole as the hole that's needed. Bend the piece to fit, and trim down to shape with the dremel grinding wheel. As soon as you get it to fit, heat the piece to dull cherry red color, and then plunge it into cold automotive oil.
I am shooting IJs and H&R revolvers with home-made parts I made a long time ago. I guess I'm just an old cheapskate!
