Help please!!

I picked up my pistol today. The gunsmith said that the spring is going to need replaced but the type of spring that was used, is no longer available. I have no idea how to reach the guy that built the gun, to ask him about the spring. The gunsmith suggested that I try and reach him, to see if he may have a spare? Any suggestion on other options? Is it that difficult to find springs?

there are a LOT of custom spring shops that will MAKE you a spring to your spec's
a GOOD smith should be able to tell you what is needed or Get you a new spring
MY guess is, your smith doesn't think its worth HIS time, to do so, or doesn't want to charge you what he feels his time will be in this project!
this is the problem you can run into with custom built guns
do you KNOW The maker of the gun??
most LONG time gun smiths MIGHT have better ways of contacting him if you don';t have a way
try smiths in HIS area and ask away!,
