Anyone have a Colt made arched/grooved mainspring housing available? I'm restoring a series 70 gun and need one. (I've looked at the afternarket versions, but prefer an original Colt part). I'll be having the part nickel plated so the finish condition doesn't matter (or if it's blue or stainless), as long as the metal is mint condition (not beat up, or nicked in anyway)
Brownell's has Colt parts though they are composite. I was looking for an arched housing myself and this is where I found it. Though plastic, it may suit you in a pinch.
