Title: Broken extractor
Post by: hoss shoer on January 21, 2013, 07:34:20 PM
Broke the extractor on my Chaparral 1866 in 45 lc, I can't find one anywhere. do Uberti parts interchange? Better yet anybody have access to Chaparral parts? Thanks

I'm afraid I have bad news and worse news.  Most Chaparral parts don't fit Chaparral guns.  At this time there is no source of Chaparral parts in the US.  There is no importer of any Chaparral products.

Th Chaparral rifles were partly a copy of Winchester and partly a copy of Uberti.  They are a poor copy of either.  My suggestion would be to try an Uberti extractor.  If the Uberti doesn't work, then try a Winchester part.

Thanks, I ordered a Uberti extractor. Now cross your fingers.
