For me it's just been a matter of making a lot of calls to old guys and networking.
Some of them have been collecting firearms for 50 years and hoarding projects with the intention of " getting around to it one day "
That One Day has usually well passed for these guys.

That One Day will pass for me also.
So I make an effort too buy these interesting projects and get them going as quickly as possible.
Use them or move them on, with the satisfaction of at least having owned and shot a piece of history.

In this case a genuine prototype from the hands of Westley Richards
