Getting hold of us
A person answers everything here. There is no ticket system and no chatbot, which means replies are sometimes slower and always actually answer the question.
Identifying a part
The best route by a distance. Describe what you are holding and Butch Schoeller answers it himself — and the answer is published, so the next person with the same question finds it.

Press, research requests, corrections to the reference material, and anything that does not fit the three boxes above. Corrections are particularly welcome — if something here is wrong, being told is worth more than being polite about.
Before you write
Two things worth knowing
Questions before buying are free and encouraged. Whether a part will fit your particular arm is exactly the question worth asking first, and asking it costs nothing. Fitting an original part to an original gun is gunsmithing work and is normal.
We do not sell complete firearms, of any kind. Only components, only for arms of pre-1899 design. If you are looking for a whole gun, this is not the place — and the compliance page sets out exactly where the line is.
