1863 Starr single action revolver cylinder stop or a parts gun

[Ralphie boy]

I can’t believe as large as this forum is that no one has an original Starr single action revolver cylinder stop that is willing to sell to me. Please contact me if you have that part or even a Starr parts gun that you would like to sell.
Regards,
Ralph

Shouldn't be too hard to make one. Other than that try Dixie Gun works.

I have one but it's currently attached to my Pietta Starr SA.

Repo’s won’t work, completely different shape from original. I would love to make one if I had a sample or drawings. I have not found any dimensions anywhere

Your photo looks like it came from the S&S website and I see it’s currently out of stock. Have you tried other forums such as CivilWarTalk, N-SSA? I would even try the ColtForum. You might connect there with a Colt enthusiast who just happens to also own a SA Starr or who has Starr parts. My original is a DA or I would try to help.

Good luck!

Is the original missing?

You would be correct and once they sell what they have that is usually it until they happen onto another parts gun which could be months or years away. I have tried other forums but I guess I just have to continue to look around. If I could get my hands on one as a sample I could take measurements and definitely make one. I never thought in a million years that this little part which is so important to the mechanics of the revolver would be this difficult to locate. She will sit on my work bench until I find one, some place, somewhere. Thanks for your input.
