Anybody Parting Out a .44 or .45 R92 ?

My basket-case .44 R92 has been out of commission for over 2 years now. I finally obtained most of the parts I needed, but the last thing I now need is a BOLT. Rossi will only sell the complete bolt assembly, and of course that is assuming they have any in stock, which they don't.
I was told by former Navy Arms (pre-Braztech importer) gunsmith that the bolts for .44 and .45 are the same, basically interchangeable. Can anybody confirm that?
Where can I find a used bolt???
Thanks

Here is the curse of the Rossi, parts. Always has been and will only get worse. Start watching eBay. A bolt is not going to be cheap. There is one listed there now:

Honestly, you might be at the point where you are better off stripping it down to the sum of its parts and selling everything but the receiver on eBay. I've even seen serialized receivers sold on eBay, but I wouldn't do it as that would require an FFL transfer. Sell it on GunBroker or Gun Auctions.

There is a receiver for a different brand on eBay right now.
Tsk tsk

I had a friend buy a receiver for a Marlin 1893 last year at a great price. He blew his up with a double charge of Unique. I'm not sure who would be in trouble the seller or buyer, probably both.

I emailed you the link for giggles. I know the seller would be up the creek with both the ATF and eBay as well as PayPal. Good luck when PayPal freezes his bank account.
I did not post the link because too much attention and someone will drop a dime. I'd rather sit back and watch.
