I have a 1974 manufacture Marlin 1894 in .44 Magnum, bought used.
Unfortunately in my first shooting session, discovered a couple issues. I have replaced a dented magazine tube with a new one. A couple parts I haven't been able to find are the front barrel band screw, and the rear barrel band screw (discovered it was broken after removing the front sight and barrel band).
I have looked at Numrich Gun Parts, MidwayUSA and Brownells with either the parts not listed, or sold out.
Any recommendations for other parts vendors are appreciated. I have contacted Marlin/Remington, but not much help over the phone (I may have to ship the screws so they can compare them to stock.)
Thanks in advance for any advice.
