I found out on my second shots at the Southern after taking the gun across the country. Sigh. Anyway, no one had any parts at the Southern. I was told by a few folks that the part(s) may have to be made. (Another sigh.) I would appreciate any suggestions or advice on getting this repaired from the Gurus on the board. Best Regards, RCC R. Craig Clark jakearoo(at)cox.net

If I remember correctly the screw is a standard thread and should be relatively easy to find. Jim I learn something every day, and a lot of times it's that what I learned the day before was wrong

The cocking plate is usually 1/16" (.062) but you might have to file it thinner if you are having problems recocking the gun. The screw head might have to be filed on a slight angle to fit right because the counterbore in the forend iron might not be deep enough or the screw head might be thicker and it will protrude. L.C.
