Source for replacement detent ball and spring for M14 buttplate ass'y?

[jjrothWA]

Or just use a commercial spring and ball?

Or what is the distance that both can fly?? [and they weren't singing: "OFF we go..."}

thx

[lyman]

they fly just out of eyesight, and land in another dimension,,

every time,

just like all spring loaded detents

Found the flying parts, now just to get them back where they belong. Definitely , need a second set of hands.

you need to buy a lottery ticket now!!!

Naw, I'm going for a "perfecta", I took a second one apart for turpentine soak and wire brushing.

I figured out of to use a medium CHANNEL-Lok pliers to squeeze the ball and spring down and to slide the upper butt=plate in to place and slide a drill bit thru the four aligned hole and tap the roll pins in.

Will re-parkerized shortly.
Lottery just remember that money is TAINTED, it taint yours' nor mine!
