Looking for M1902 3-inch cannon parts

Post by nwarcade » Sat Apr 24, 2021 10:59 pm

Hi all,
I'm looking for M1902 3-inch cannon parts for both the carriage and gun. Stuff like shield parts, hinges, toggle locks, ammo rack doors, a rear sight, and fire control parts either original or repro. Are there any good sources for restoration parts?
Thanks everyone,
NW

I had one years ago ! Great Gun ! Matt Switkick in Monroe Michigan might be able to help you find the parts you need ! The Ohio Civil War Show is in Mansfield next weekend and Matt always sets up a Display . Matt Shoots his 1895 75mm Gun a lot , check U-Tube for a Video of him shooting his 75mm Gun.

Thank you for the tip Don. Is Matt the operator of Museum & Collector Specialties? I'm just looking for a good way to connect with him.
