I am an idiot. Took it apart to fix the barrel wobble and the spring that I think turns the cylinder has disappeared, searched for an hour. Can anyone make one? Image showing the spring in question.  |

You was lucky to find such a small part .... I remember when i took my Remington 1875 apart to change it to an 1888 model ...believe it or not i managed
to lose the loading gate .... not the tiny spring or the miniscule ball bearing but the quite large loading gate ..... couldn't get one anywhere but looking over
my Umarex Colt SAA i noticed some similarities .... luckily the loading gate on the colt was the same as the Remington so got one and fitted it

For future reference, I had to make a new barrel spring for the silenced Nagant. Easy enough to make but you need the original dimensions, number of coils, and piano wire size.
I say easy enough, once set up it took about a minute to make one but took 7 or 8 attempts before I got it perfect but it can be done.

After searching for a couple of hours I was making a new one from a pen spring, fitting it and it pinged off and hit the wall. I get up to go and find it and the original was right there on the floor. Got it back together eventually and all seems well.
