Yeah the carrier is made of a metal that is too soft so that the snail cam on the lever starts to wear groove... but the new Remlins also have this problem as well, too soft a metal is still used on the carriers.. I purchased brand new carriers for my lever guns a long time ago but was also thinking of welding in a piece of hard metal and filing to fit so it wont wear out while I still live.

I stopped by the local Sportsmans warehouse today and saw that they had a new Remlin 1895 cowboy... Fit and finish was very nice, wish I would have had my pocket flashlight so I could have checked the barrel closer but everything looked very good.
Do 1895 cowboys come the pistol grip stock? with my joints its hard to use a straight stock lever gun.
