I have just got a 36 gren it has JPS on it the only id I can find is for JP&S (Joseph Parks & Sons)

Can any one help for a spare striker and spring??

Thanks
 
Hi Bud,

JP&S, Josiah Parkes & Son, Union Works, Willenhall, Staffs. Your gren was made by them.
An old girlfriend was of this name and she came from this family, wouldnt have it that her family firm was into munitions production, even though i showed her all the info. Ah well.

I have a spring but no spare striker.

Sure is bud,

pm me your add and ile send you a spring, you will have to give it a good clean though. Perfectly springy but slight surface rust.

Chase,

how about trying Dugup or Millsman, they both make repro strikers and they are pretty good.
