Uberti Remington 1858 parts?

[loiner1965]

Hi all. Any one know best place for parts for above? Mine needs trigger spring and new hand. Seen post about part for Pedersoli by Tac foli earlier on and thought there may be something similar for Uberti.

i can send a trigger spring down to you ......i got a few from tacs friends in the usa.

Thanks for offer and info. I phoned Kranks earlier today and ordered the spring and a few other parts at same time. All were in stock. Seemed pricey at nearly £10 for a spring but the guns about 20 years old and probably on original one.

mine went a few weeks ago and kranks website showed they were in stock but when i phoned they didnt have any and was waiting for the uberti order to come in.
they said the order was roughly 6 weeks away so i sourced mine from tacs friends in the states.
also got one from peter dyson at £18 or maybe a tad more delivered but that broke on cocking and had to wait for replacement.
kranks is a good shop but if for some reason it doesnt turn up give us a shout.
mine started not to index properly and was still intact then snapped when i removed and replaced etc

Kranks have a re for good service, but getting parts from Uberti has always been a RPITA. As you note, they have to make up a batch of parts to justify the cost, and maybe what YOU want isn't in that batch.

About a year ago I tried to get a couple of tang screw out of Uberti factory, and I'm still waiting for a response. The usual vendors of bits like this are Dixie Gun works in TN, fast and cheap[ish] service, or, even better for Pedersoli parts, Balasz Németh in his specialist BP store in Budapést - Kapszli-hu.com

Got back today and order from Kranks had arrived. All parts ordered: trigger spring, new hand and cylinder lock all there. Just tried fitting but trigger spring is slightly shorter than original and doesn't reach the trigger. Maybe a design change over the years or maybe a faulty new spring. All the best laid plans!
