    1) Welcome to the board !

    2) Numrich has some parts: https://www.gunpartscorp.com/gun-man...es-marlin/1881

    AFAIK, the carrier "assembly" consists of the two parts Numrich does list (the carrier body & the 2-pronged carrier block (feeding) spring) - but what do I know ?

    I believe that this is a complete carrier, although for the small action:







    I would think that if you could find such a gunsmith, he would need an example/pattern to copy.

    just checked numrich out again thought maybe missed something the carrier parts are for the small frame 1881 one could only assume the larger frame carrier would have been scaled up a bit?

    I have made the spring a few times over the years for the large frame.

    Most likely I could make another one but I no longer have the jig. Would need the carrier to get measurements and build a new jig for bending. Not going to be cheep.
