Hi, I'm looking for a full set of cam followers (everything) for thick flange barrels on my Gold flash project. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks for reading, Rich. North Yorks.

I don't think there's a difference, but someone will certainly chime in to take out that last bit of uncertainty.

I switched barrels from thin to thick on my 57 swing arm A10.

Installed the cam followers from the thin flange into the thick flange and have experienced no problems

The only difference is the grub screw that comes from the top to secure the locating pin. Thin flange 67-0276, thick flange 67-0949 is a bit longer.

If you find some one can do regrind it is better to keep no hole in the your pocket.

Thanks for all the replies and advice, there's a set on the way to me via a recent contact. Didn't like to "rob Peter for Paul" if you know what I mean!
Thanks again, Rich.

Hi, yes I did obtain a set from an eBay seller (there's a surprise). Can't help with any info on oversize ones. If you're in no rush, some are bound to turn up on eBay at the right price.
Good hunting, Rich.
