I’m looking for a cocking plate for a LC Smith field grade. It is missing as is the screw from the forend. So i will also need the screw. Thanks.
Check with Jerry Andrews but last I saw….he did not have them. I ended up making a couple for guys and apparently they worked fine. They are easy to make and the screw (4-40) is nothing special, any machinist can make one in a few minutes. The screw hole locating might be a problem but otherwise with the correct thickness material you could make one by hand, they do need to be hardened. I have a rough drawing if that would help.

I checked With Jerry. No luck. Yes drawings would be great. I will see if I can find someone to make one.
Lou Rotelli in CT could make one for you. He frequents this site as, I think, dgfix. Have you looked at Numrich’s web site. Post over on the LC site as well. I,ll check in my pile of parts as well.
Good luck.
Shoot me your email by pm and I will send the drawing to you.

I did Check Numrich. Out of stock. I will Post on the LC Forum. Didn’t know if I need To be a collector assoc. member to post.
No you do not; on the LC club express site, yes. Buck Hamlin in Missouri May also have parts. I think I have a fore end from an R frame field grade 12. This was a parts gun that I cannibalized for lock parts. I,ll get back. Also Jack First, a parts company, in South Dakota has an array of parts. Can hurt to try them as well.
Good luck.
A it is not a difficult part to make
You have to pardon my ignorance, but if you post a picture of just what you are looking for I will wade through my pile o' crap and see if I have one. I decommissioned a few Elsie's a while back.

I don’t do pictures here…but it is a small plate 1/16 thick, roughly 3/8 wide 1/2 long with a hole threaded in the center, beveled on one end and radiused the other. It sets in the forearm iron and the cocking rods work against it.

Sorry, I went through what I got and I can't help.
