Wanted: Colt New Service .45 cylinder

I know it is a long shot but if anyone has a Colt New Service .45 cylinder laying about that they don't need please let me know. I'm in the U.S. so I don't know if there are export issues for this item, no problem receiving it in the U.S. Without this, my New Service is an interesting paperweight!

Thanks

Hi

Over here a New Service, or even a major part for it, would come under similar laws & restrictions as a USA Class III licence.
Getting one moved within the UK would take some doing, exporting it - no idea

The rest of Europe may be a better area to search, plus they are/were a very popular gun in Canada and the Southern Americas

Hope you find one - my 455 New Service is still safe with a friend for now...

Well, I thought it was a long shot. Thanks for letting me know. One may turn up on the auction sites here in the U.S.
