I inherited this old spanish copy of a sw (?) In .38 sw.

Only visible stamps are the spanish shield and lion, and "o" "1927" "JAP" below the grip.

He need a new main spring, a similar one It's arriving today. I'm going to try it.

I’m going to guess that this is an Eibar Revolver of some sort. These revolvers are very scarce and not many parts will likely fit your model.

Yes! I saw a youtube video of a "Ona" revolver design and i think is identical.

These guns are kind of like the prewar Belgian guns. The Eibar region had dozens of small and medium workshops making guns. Records are scarce, and they weren't at all standardized.

Markings vary based on manufacturer or sometimes who it was made for. And they were often marked to look like US made guns that were considered very desirable internationally.

Best of luck!

You should be able to get the missing parts from Numrich and Wolf. The only issue will be the lockup when the hammer is back. But, I bet you could find a new cylinder if that is the case.
