KEBCO has some Swedish RB parts. Whether they will work I don't know, but I think he has everything you are looking for listed.

Thanks for all your replies guys. It look like I will be able to get all the parts I need.
It looks so sad without its hammer and trigger. It will look good next to its almost identical twin!
Regards,

..............Back in the 80's and up till the early 90's GPC was selling "wallhanger" rolling blocks for a price that could get the gambler part of you interested (if you felt lucky). For me it boiled down to hoping for an intact action. The first one I bought had what was probably the original forend but a new buttstock that wasn't to badly done. It was a light brownish hardwood of closed grain. It also had what apeared to be a brand new heavy brass buttplate of local manuacture.

The rear sight was long gone and the front sight was just a nubbin. All 3 barrel bands looked like they'd never been removed and were kind of slowly melting into the wood:-) Visible heavy pitting at the wood line lead me to believe thatthebarrel would have no underside, with the bands merely holding the tophalf down into the forend. The action was intact except for the extractor and springs. The breechblock and hammer flopped back and forth. It also looked like someone had tried to shine things up with a wire wheel.

I'll bet that some enterprising soul in the mid east found a bunch of these things somewhere and put some local craftsmen to work fooling with them, hense the new appearing butt stock wood and brass buttplate. I threw everything away except for the action, buttstock and buttplate. Years later I thew those away and just had the action. Both action pins were original RB parts but had been rusted so badly that cleaning them up had the hammer and breechblock fairly rattleing on'em.

The 2nd one I got a month or so later was a travesty of a thing. No breechblock, the forend cut off ahead of the rear band (Sportsterized :-)) another new buttstock but nowhere near as well done as the other, and it was cocked off at an angle. It kind of confirmed a sneaking suspision I had. It was pretty clear to me know that the way the various generations of (they WERE 130 years old) troops used these was to grasp them by the muzzle and drag them along on the ground. The action was so worn it was just a vague silhuette of a Rem RB. That killed my gambleing on any further wallhanger RB's from GPC.

Here are two places I have had good luck with old military parts.
http://www.ssfirearms.com/
http://www.lodgewood.com/
Both are run by good people.But I would give them a call as they
may have stuff you couls use but not in numbers that would be worth
putting in the catalog.Another place to try is Dixie gun works.
Same thing you need to call and talk to the one old guy that does the
unusual gun parts.
