Belgian 410 ga Guild Guns

Need to find a parts catalog that shows the parts for these guns. I got seveal of them in England, and to make them safe, the previous owners took the firing pins and screw and springs for the firing pin
out to make the guns safe, I could perhaps make the pins if I knew what they looked like. Also got one made by Army & Navy of England
and one marked Harrods department store. Thanks;. John

    Don't believe "Parts Catalog" of any kind is going to do you any good. These so called "Guild Guns" weren't mass produced in the manner of modern commercial shotguns. They were made and HAND FITTED virtually on a individual basis.
    The only way you're going to get the proper replacement parts is to either do it your self, or pay a VERY EXPERIENCED GUNSMITH to make the parts for you. This will have to be done on a trial and error basis. Considering the cost of hand labor at this point in time, it might prove to be prohibitively expensive.

    Rufe-Snow is correct....and You need to know that the British used the WHITWORTH Thread for Screws and Bolts..A bit different than Metric or SAE...You really Need a 1st Class, Old Country Gunsmith...The Belguim made pieces will be Metric....Maybe our very own 'Mark Christian' of these Forums can possibly point You in the Correct direction...????
