    supplier for old parts

    I was recently replacing one of the springs on an older Stevens model 620 pump shotgun.
    I found the replacement spring, after much searching, at JACK FIRST GUNSHOP. They were helpful and prompt and they had the correct part.

    Been dealing with them for years. They use to sell their catalogs for $50, which refunded after you spent certain amount. I bought them and wouldn’t take $100 for them. They are best reference for parts you can get in a couple volumes. They didn’t print prices, if you didn’t inquire when you ordered sticker shock was not uncommon. Much more dependable than Numerich.

    I've also bought from Jack First. Everything I've gotten has been top quality new reproduction, unlike Numrich which as often as not is selling used parts of questionable provenance.

    A few weeks ago I needed an extractor for a Smith & Wesson sv40 w an online search proved fruitless but then I called Jack First on the telephone. The nice lady said sure we will sell you one and that was that. It's been like that every time I've dealt with them, good company.

    I dealt with them fairly often many years ago when they were, if memory serves, in Lancaster, CA. After they moved to their present location, less so; but still, over the years I've sometimes found them to have what no one else did. That is so true about their catalogs-- I still have a set in my shop, long obsolete but often helpful for reference.

    Another one, now that I think about it, is Bob's Gun Shop, located in Royal, Arkansas. He was always a one-man operation and it took a long time to find out if he had what you needed, and a longer time to get it; but things have improved quite a bit, as has the variety of things he carries. He has a pretty comprehensive website listing what he does have: www.gun-parts.com

    Bob's Gun Shop is OK, he has had a few health issues the past couple of years, but between him and his wife they keep things running a smooth as they can.

    Another source is "The Gun Garage" in Siloam Springs AR, Its a father and son operation, years of new and old parts.
