Not really. All parts were hand fit to each gun. Very rare to get “drop in” parts for any gun, especially when switching between different manufacturers.

Often they are, as I have made several parts guns. The side plate, trigger arm and trigger bar assembly have critical clearances and fitting, so not typical of the other parts. Also many parts are WELL USED, so fit with minor work.
