Does anyone know of a source for parts for a FN Model 30/1930 shotgun?

Looking for the barrel sling screws (or their thread pitch) and the right screw for what seems the ejector for the right hand barrel.

Also does any one know the thread pitch for the bead as well, the bead was there this morning, but gone from the gun when I got home.

I've tried the more common parts suppliers, but none of them have parts for the FN Model 30/1930 shotgun, not that I'm surprised.

Figure I ask before I have to bring it to my gunsmith.

Thanks in advance

I've heard them called Model 30 or Model 1930. See this thread: https://www.doublegunshop.com/forum...Words=chantry&Search=true#Post631029

On edit: Turns out it isn't the FN Model 1930 since mine lack the side clips and Greener cross bolt shown in the 1930 FN Catalog.

Recently, I purchased a GECO SxS 16 gauge at auction. Normally, GECO sourced their shotguns from Sauer, but the one I purchased was sourced from FN. Frankly, I was surprised at the quality.

Thanks, but I'm not planning on putting swivels back on
