I assume you are talking about Bob Roller locks/triggers and if so I think you will have to find someone that has them for sale. I don't think Bob Roller is producing them at the current time.

If you just want roller bearings installed in your current lock Sam Everly has been doing some but I am not sure if he still is or not. I have a late Ketland that he did and its really a nice feeling lock.

Can't say about his triggers, but most of his locks, I've seen, were basically late English style with a round or square tail.
I don't know if he has made other styles.  If so, I've not seen them.

The only one I have personally seen was Roller's version of the L&R Manton. Super  smooth lock. I think he makes a Germanic style too.

A good friend gave me this rifle, he said it had a Bob Roller lock. It is a very fast lock.
