I seem to remember someone had offered a repro 1873 cylinder for sale, but cant seem to remember where or who. Does anyone here know what i am talking about, or am I completely confused on this one?

Tater: You might be right, I have a vague recollection of this seller, but no current info, just the GPC link..

Thanks for the quick reply, i did end up finding who was selling the cylinders, but i looked at the timestamp and it was more than 3 years ago, not sure if they would still be in that particular niche trade, so i picked up on from numrich, thanks a load, i really didnt think they would have any, turns out they had two in stock. Now one. i have no idea what its condition might be, but im glad to have it on the way. you folks, Vonmjazur in particular, are lifesavers.

Here's a old post by the guy that had the replacements for sale
That was awhile back I think he may have sold them.
