Sources for rare parts?
What are some good sources for uncommon gun parts?

Specifically, I need a loaded chamber indicator for a Martini Cadet.

Do you have a busted one to use for a pattern?

Again, what about making another? You have the original, which is 90% of the battle.

I don't have the tools to make another one. Could have a gunsmith do it...

Gunparts lists it for under $12, (but BO) so I don't think the Gunsmith could make it for that.

I could just shoot without it. It serves no purpose but to indicate the strikert is cocked...

But I want to keep it authentic.

I'll check out those other sources. Kepp 'em coming, if there's one you know of that's not listed so far.

Wisner's does not make that part. However go to their webpage.

www.gunpartsspecialist.com

Look on the left hand side of the home page for special made parts. This will take you to some one who can make those type of odd parts.

This is a simple part to make on the CNC. I have a good sample I can CAD out if needed.

I got a single trigger to replace a DST of a Mannlicher-Schoenauer (someone else's gun!!!) from Gun Parts Corp. when even NECG couldn't find one....
