Want to know about western marshal 44 mag.

bsheets20061 · April 4, 2009, 02:46 PM

I recently bought a western marshal revolver that needs a little work for 70.00, it shoots fine but the the problem is that hammer will not stay at full cock. I was wondering if anybody knew anything about them good or bad and if anybody knew where i could get some parts for it to get it back to good functioning condition.

thanks,
Brandon

Imported by Hawes in the 60s and 70s, Made in Germany by J P Sauer and Sohn. Compared to the Rugers and Colts they were inexpensive guns. They were copies of the Colt 1873, not a clone so parts might be hard to find. Try Numrich Gun Parts Corp. 70 dollars, you didn't pay too much.

couldn't buy parts to fix the problem so my buddy is fabing them shouldn't cost me more that 15.00 needed a new pin that had broken and a worn out spring other than that it should be good as new.
