Shroud can be purchased directly from DW. Email genny@cz-usa.com. Assuming you don’t mind if it’s a laser etched/engraved not roll marked like the old vintage ones. 

As for the crane and cylinder, DW will more than likely have some but with Bob (DW gunsmith) retiring soon I don’t know if they’re taking in new work?? Bob says they require fitting so you must send the gun to them. But I think Bob told me they will ship those parts as long as it goes to a FFL. 

send him an email and see what he says. Bob@cz-usa.com

Thanx, I'll try Monday to call DW

  

Can try calling. But I find Bob and Genny are easier to reach via email. 
If you email Bob today I bet you $100 he will respond to you by 6am tomorrow. He’s real good

I thought Bob retired end of April.  I may be wrong.  Curious if someone could verify the specific date of his retirement.

I did send Bob a congratulations email before end of April. I also thanked him for all his years of service to the DW fans/customers.

I did sort of the same got a Retirement Card and sent it to him at CZ about three weeks ago.  I thanked him for working on my 744 and my 7445 he went through them completely and put an unfluted cylinder on the 744 also.

I got my order in with Bob before he retired.  It will be a while before they do a run, so I have no idea on when to expect it.  The crane was not and likely will not be available, so I just got the cylinder, extractor and barrel shroud.

No, on shrouds for a large frame 4".  He didn't think they would ever do another run on cranes.
