Broken spring
I have a problem with my Pietta 1860 Army revolver .It seems a spring has broken in the gun ,I believe it is called the trigger and bolt spring , part #26 in the diagram .Any ideas as to where I might find the parts ?? I would not go int half cock and when fully cocked it did not hold the hammer fell without ant trigger action .I took it apart and a bit of metal fell out and the spring looks like it is missing the bit ??

You can make one out of a bobby pin.

Just do a web search for the part.
You can start, though with Dixie Gun Works, in Tn. http://www.dixiegunworks.com Or Taylors: http://www.taylorsfirearms.com/parts...ver-parts.html

Trigger/bolt spring can be made from a safety pin.
