There really is nothing better than starting off the work week in the hole, but that seems to be SOP for me.
Years ago my mom bought a Charter Arms Off Duty revolver probably of '80s vintage marked Stratford, CT. It basically set in her nightstand for all of those years never being used. My mom passed away in 2017 and my sister ended up with the house and brought out that revolver the other night while I was visiting to ask me about it. The cylinder latch was not working correctly because some rust had developed underneath it, so, I brought it to work today to try and clean it up a bit. I removed the latch screw and as I was working with it the rust broke lose and the latch plate, spring and plunger flew off into the fourth dimension. I've swept and vacuumed and looked through the dirt to no avail. I'm assuming the parts went through a black hole.
Is Numrich the only place I can get these little parts? It's $44 to get these three little parts from them and I'm just steaming that I couldn't manage to even find one of them on the floor.
The other question is do all of the old Charter Arms revolvers use the same parts or am I going to have to look for something specific to this gun?
