My friend has a .410 Charles Dailey o/u Made by Miroku. He has a broken hammer spring and I can't find anyone that is willing to repair it. People think it is made like a Winchester 101, it is not THANKS IN ADVANCE for any help. pddugan@bellsouth.net

I think it's made like the Citori, no? Shouldn't be that big of a deal, unless I'm missing something.

It has absolutely no relationship to the old 101, other than having been made in Japan. Miroku makes the Citori for Browning, and some parts may be interchangeable, most apparently not. There is a gunsmith in Arizona who has a pile of Miroku parts. He used to advertise on GunBroker, may still do so. Do a GB search for Miroku and scroll through.

Abe Chaber, out in CT, used to work on those guns back when they were being imported. Don't know whether he is still in business.

Since you're in Georgia, I would give Bill Schwarz a call. He is capable of making springs and is very reasonable.

My memory says you will need a flat spring, aka V spring. There was a guy MANY years ago who converted them to coil springs but I doubt if he is still at it. I recomend you fing a guy who makes springs.

Those Miroku Dalys do indeed use V-springs. I recall talking to Abe Chaber when I did an article on Miroku doubles quite some time ago, and he remarked that other than the occasional broken spring, they were pretty solid guns.
