The factory will not help as it is 40+ years old. I would check with GunBroker and other places like GunParts Corp. on a regular basis. Ask in the wanted section of GunBroker Forums. Best shot at finding one for sale. There are others but expect to pay upwards of 300 for a decent one.
A PHD Won't help you if you don't know what the hell you are talking about.

Did you buy it wtlith a missing bolt. I bought one not long ago that slam fires. I guess someone was trying to make the trigger pull a little lighter.

To get a spare bolt, buy a used gun since a bolt price if found will be about the same price. Last one I saw was $ $650 . This way you can get a couple more spare parts!

You my already know this, be careful on what bolt you buy even if you find one. A 3 lug L61R bolt will only go in a receiver design for a 3 lug bolt. Will not fit a 2 lug receiver. Read up on the 3 lug bolts, receivers and dates. Again, you probably already know this, get the bolt face ID preferably with photo of the caliper face when being measured by seller. A seller that will not do this, caveat emptor.
