You can try this place. He has parts for lots of older models and prices look reasonable.

Thanks skinner-t. It was a very good direction. I didn't mention that it was a 3rd Model, which makes a difference.

Thanks for your sites to purchase the dust cover and parts. Now my questions are; since these are new/blue parts would I be better off just leaving the 1873 without it? If I do buy the new parts, how do you suggest that I remove the blue to match the patina of the rifle?.........Thanks
