Thor,
You should be able to get one of these from Tom Heller, new manufacture, no problem.
One thing to note when you do, the little "hooks" at the end which the recoil stirrup connects to are larger, thicker, and longer than the originals. when I first installed mine, the toggle would jam open, and it took me the longest time to figure out why.
Turns out the hook ends actually jammed up against the underside of the breechblock at fulll recoil, actually gouged it pretty good. Took some judicious filing on the ends until they were short enough to no longer make contact.
You will probably also note (and may have already, with other old-style guns), even the new-manufacture springs are pretty weak. My 1900 shooter likes wimpy Fiocci just fine, but anything stouter feels like its punishing the gun pretty hard.
