Ive got a Ruger just begging for some new parts!
I realize it's a commitment, but if you aren't already familiar with basic metalwork(filing, fitting, old school case hardening, spring making...) you should consider learning. There's very few parts in a modern firearm that can't be reproduced with knowledge and a reasonably easy to assemble collection of hand tools.
There will come a time when parts are impossible to acquire and knowing how to manufacture your own replacement parts might make the difference between a rifle and a boat anchor.
They can disarm a man, but if he knows how to work metal, he won't stay disarmed unless he chooses to be.

I’ve produced my own replacement parts before. If it’s ever legal again, I’d love to produce the mechanism design I have (LEGALLY) for selective fire.
This should not be construed as a statement that I would ever illegally modify a firearm!
