A few years back, I found an 1879 Remington Lee Navy rifle in the attic of my great aunt's house. It is in pretty good shape, but it seems that my great grandfather made it "safe" for storage and removed the bolt. He has been dead for 30-40 years and so no one in my family has any idea as to where it could be. I looked everywhere in the house, but was unable to find it.

Does anyone know of someone who might sell this bolt? or possibly remanufacture it (working or non-working)? I am also looking for a front barrel band and cleaning rod (rod not a high priority).

This is a piece of my families history, and I would like to be able to have it displayed in my home someday as a complete piece. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
