Remington Model 7 Firing Pin Spring?

[flytie]

Being as this is where my question should probably have been asked, I'll try again:

Would anyone have an idea where to source a replacement Remington Model 7 firing pin spring, preferably an upgrade to the factory one?

I do know that PTG and GreTan sell them in the USA, but they will not sell to a private individual in the UK.

TIA, Simon

Why not find a local firm to wind a spring for you?
I had to do that recently, it cost me a tenner for 3 springs.

I hadn't even thought about doing that, thank you!

PTG sells and sends chamber reamers to individuals in UK, why not a spring?

You'd have to ask them.

I'd recommend avoiding PTG like the plague. Their CS for non-industry customers has been abhorrent for the past 15 years or so. They pretty much quit caring about the little/individual guys, and focus on industry contracts these days.

Manson and JGS are the go-to suppliers of reamers for the local gunsmiths and such now.

Hi,
Couple of months ago I looked on PTG website and it had been made easier for non American customers to pay for stuff.
I ordered a 221 Fireball reamer and it was delivered in under 3 weeks.
Must admit, I have had issues with them in the past.
I have felt with Dave Manson and the lovely Dara, accomplished huntress.
Ken.
Ps. The Fb reamer was a stock item.

Oh dear,
Should have said ‘I have dealt with Dave Manson, not felt with him’.
