Anyone know what type of lock components I need to order for James River Arsenal Mississippi rifles? Iam trying to re build a lock and need parts. Any help is greatly appreciated.

The JRA Mississippi Rifles were built from Euroarms parts.

I checked with S&S firearms and Lodgwood and no Euroarms sear to be had. Anyone have one in their spare parts box or know of where I can find them?

Winchester Sutler lists Euroarms parts on their website.

You know if that one is based on the Zouave?

I think their Mississippi used the same parts.

If it is not and based on the Enfield than I may have some.

Can you post a picture of the parts you have.

I just ordered a set of parts from Dixie. They will arrive Monday for a Euroarms Zouave. I am almost sure they are the same. I expect they will need machining for the rebuild I am doing as the lock plates used had metric and Standard hole hat thread sizes. Some need bushed, and all need fitting well beyond "file to fit". I also know hammer position can be an issue. If you like give me a call later in the week and I can give you a report of what I found, 410-208-4736
