yes the ALRF is a good web site .
one of the first things that will get ask though is ; who built your lock ?
it should have a makers mark on the inside .
you might get lucky and find its one of Buds . if so you might get Jim Chambers to work it over . or if its one of Jims, he is real good about things .
past that , if it doesnt carry a maker or is an unknown maker , then you may be doing as bed bug sugests and replaceing a few parts .
myself i wouldnt think the lock plate would be one as the pan on the siler is bridled and unscrews from the plate . so even if the frizzen bridle is screwed up , a new pan will fix that issue
i dont think i would send it to ToW .
instead i would ask on the ALRF for a recommended lock smith .
