Trio of project pistols

Scored these over the weekend. All need some form of repair. I went ahead and got the parts for Mr.Saturday Night (.32 S&W)first since they are they hardest to find/get, then the model 1916 "Ruby" still need to get a mag. The DA/SA Iver Johnson sidewinder will be the last to get fixed.

If the sidewinder needs a trigger return spring, don't get it from Numrich. The Numrich part number says small frame, but all they have in stock is the large frame spring.

Thank you for that information. I actually had it in my cart.
It doesn't necessarily need one but since I was going to have to open it up I was just going to replace all the main spring.
It needs the cylinder pin retainer parts(screw,but and spring). And every once in awhile the action will bind but once you let pressure off the hammer and for lack of a better description let it go to half cock it'll free up.
I'll take a video of it tonight when I get home and post it.

So I started the the Kimel 5000/FIE Guardian.
It was missing a bunch of parts and springs and these things are next to impossible to get a schematic on. Tracked down some parts and began the shade tree job and have now reached the test fore phase. Timing and lock up are good.
