Remington-Elliot 5 barrel 22RF front mainspring cover

Post by sandshobbies »

I was hoping someone here might have an existing front mainspring cover and some calipers. I doubt I will ever find a replacement so I figured I might as well start work on roughing out a couple of tries at replicating one. Having a baseline is always helpful.

You mean a stirrup.
I'm not sure I have a 5 elliot but I may for a zigzag let me look and are they different? hum....

Ok I have two, one clearly someone homemade for a spring that couldn't have been right (no surprise there) I assume you have the spring. The second I can't say for for which I haven't had one apart in a long time and both are a b..h to put back together and risky. I doubt I could even peek under the grips and tell

Send me an email, click the email in this post.

The part I am looking to make is part #15 here that David was gracious enough to post - http://www.remingtonsociety.com/forums/ ... f=2&t=2880

I am having to make a V spring as well. Here is the first go around.
