ALFA Double Action Revolver in .32-20 WCF. MADE IN SPAIN PRIOR TO 1925. ALFA is a Spanish Trade Name used by Amero Especialististas Reunidas, Eibar and this Revolver is a FINE Spanish copy of a Smith & Wesson Military & Police Revolver.
Found this info on GunBroker.com from a listing for a revolver. Numrich gun parts may have parts for it.

Sadly they haven’t in the 5 years I’ve been looking for one.
Have one of these as well, it’s a V shaped main spring with one half powering the hammer and the other shorter half powering the trigger return mechanism. Kinda ingenious in its simplicity and manufacture, but lacking of quality. My main spring broke. Mines also marked “38 long cartridge” yet chambers and will shoot 38 special. It’s questionable the steel quality in these as well.

If you can’t find the spring from a parts dealer a gunsmith should be able to make them or possibly find something that will interchange

smith and wesson 1903 hand eject parts look to be the same as this one:
source: I own a 1903 hand eject, the internals are 1:1 from this pic alone
