Need "Hopkins & Allen" revolver parts - The Firearms Forum

robertscheib · 01-12-2011, 10:51 PM

I need two parts for a "Hopkins & Allen XL Double Action" pocket revolver - this is a 5 shot, .32 S&W cal. I need a "Lever" and "Lever Spring"- see parts #14 and #18 on attached illustration.
Would be willing to buy a junk frame with trigger and hammer parts intact if necessary.
I'd appreciate any contact info for parts sources: I know about NUMRICH, BOB'S GUN PARTS - others?

Those parts should be fairly easy to make, but that would not be cheap.

Just FWIW, that spring is made with the loop because it powers not only the hand but also the lifter (13) which is shown backwards. In use, its point goes to the rear to engage the strut (15, which is shown upside down) and the loop in the spring pushes on the bottom of the lifter to force it to the rear.

Jim,
I appreciate your comments - and you are right as to parts orientation.
a gentleman on another forum has offered to sell me two complete "junk" guns [cheap!!] for parts salvage.
