I have a replica Colt 1851 Navy revolver made by Euroarms that I bought in Germany in the late 1970s. I've been looking for replacement screws for the trigger guard and backstrap.

I ordered five from the Winchester Sutler. They were the wrong size (too large). When I wrote to return them, the Sutler replied that Euroarms starting making that revolver in the 1950s and that their specs changed over time.

Can anyone confirm that?

Dixie Gun Works offers generic replacement screws for 1851 Navies, along with screw sets from Pietta and Umberti. Does anyone know which (if any) of those screws might fit a Euroarms-made revolver?

Can anyone offer another source?
