ASM screws
« on: July 20, 2016, 02:20:42 PM »
I'm fixing up an ASM 51 Colt brasser. I need new hammer, bolt and trigger screws.  Of course,  since ASM is long out of business there are no parts to be found.

I have heard that Pietta screws will fit. Does anyone know if that is the case?

Thanks

Metric is metric.
I don't speak metric, but I have heard of others that are.
Best guess, yes they will.  I am sure that Dixie would have replacement screws for it.
Bon chance.

Bubba is correct, Dear Creek does have ASM parts, not look alikes. I just got an email from them stating their parts are ASM, they bought out all there was left apparently. I am placing an order myself and buying multiples of the more breakable or fast wearing parts.

Got my Deer Creek ASM parts today, dropped right in and worked like a champ. Revolver cycles perfectly and trigger breaks clean again. I will buy from Deer Creek again anytime!
