Two options that I know of, while I don't have an M88, the current lifter and striker(transfer bar) may work. Check with Numrich and see if they have a used one, Brownell's sells new parts. The other option is to replace the hammer with an older non-transfer bar mode, Numrich carries those, you'll likely have to change the spring too, I've made the swap on a couple modern frames.
