I recently bought a 1982 cva .45 caliber Kentucky rifle kit at a pawn shop for 100 bucks, it seemed like a good deal, and I had been wanting to get in to muzzleloaders and traditional hunting for a while. It seems like most all of the parts are in the box, and nothing has been assembled, however it is missing some of the screws and smaller parts like that. Does anyone know where I might be able to find parts for it? Thanks in advance,


Hunter.

You should probably try looking in the manual if it came with one and looking for a parts list/ schematic and take an inventory of what you have. Machine screws, wood screws both imperial and metric can usually be found at your local hardware store or big box store.
Another place would be online at businesses that deal with traditional black powder firearms. Track the wolf, cabin creek, Dixie gun works etc.

You can most likely find a traditions Kentucky manual online somewhere if you don't have one in hand.

Thank you for the information, I’ve been around firearms and hunting since I was old enough to understand how they work, and how to use them safely. I remember my dad having a couple of muzzleloaders here and there over the years, but he was really never all that serious about them like he was everything else so I’m learning as I go lol. And I had to edit my post, I was wrong when I said traditions, it’s a cva kit. I’m not sure If that makes a difference or not. Also, I do have an owners manual, and it seems like I’m missing pretty much every single screw except for the ones that hold the butt plate on. But again, I appreciate everything, and I will definitely check those out. I can’t wait to get this thing put together, and looking good so I can test it out. I’m pretty excited about that haha. Here’s a picture of what I have.

wood screws are available from TRACK OF THE WOLF, THE ONES THAT CAME WITH THE KIT WERE BRASS BUT THEY SHOULD BE STEEL TO BE CORRECT, deer creek products should have the rest. sorry about the caps
I just checked track of the wolf, and as far as the screw set, I saw a set for the Kentucky pistol, and then this one in the picture, it just says long rifle. Is that the right one?
