Try www.gunpartscorp.com. AFAIK, there was no hammer modification for that model until the switch to MIM parts, so getting a hammer should not be a problem.

Somewhere in the pre model number guns they went from a ball type hammer strut to a forked type. You will need to get the correct hammer for your strut, or replace both parts. The ball type was prone to breakage.

I knew I could count on THR. I believe mine is a model 31 in 32 s & w. Depending on the price of a new hammer I may bob it as I don't think this gun has much collector "appeal". I could be wrong.
