Depending on the model - ST stocks them. I got my last Zeagle parts from them. I get the Dive Rite parts from Cave Excursions or Dive Rite express. Some companies are a PIA to deal with though (Scubapro for example).

I subscribe to the freedom of access ideals. I can buy critical parts for my car and fix it myself (if I screw that up, I can kill a lot more than just me) and therefore a reg should be no different. Some companies agree with me, some don't. I patronize only those who do.

Dive Rite, Salvo, Zeagle and Posiedon are ones I know personally allow for part kits to be sold.
