:-[ Oh no I lost my safety spring and ball. O well I guess I'll go safetyless on this one ;)
common problem
a disposable lighter flint spring and 3/32 ball bearing will replace that
i used a safety detent pin out of my beretta 92fs for the lost ball
if you have a pin with ball head that can be used also if the ball is small enough to fit in the slot.just cut the pin down and it will be like a spring guide
:-* Will give it a try
break out the magnets and search for that thing.
or, shop vac your whole room and magnet the contents of the shopvac
(dont bother asking me how i know) 8)
Buy 3/32" ball bearing, off of Ebay, in bulk. :-*
Although I did lose 99 of them at one time, when I miss place the ziplock bag. :(
I did find them later, in my airgun parts box, only after order 500 more. ;D
Corrected safety ball size.

I dunno why but just today I forgot to mount the spring and steel ball and my safeties still work fine..They are a bit over in size though I instructed the machinist to make them slightly fatter. Best regards.
:o :o :o Loove those breech end caps!
I've used shirt pins as a back up when I lost the ball. The ones with the round head. Clip the pin off so ther is only about 1/8" left and guide it into the spring. Works like a charm until you can get another bb
You really don't need safetys in any airgun. The safety is between your ears.

I know this is just a misprint but to make sure no one reading this in the future uses this info to order the wrong size, the correct size is
3/32" NOT 3/16".
Cheers,

lets say that again and make it noticeable
Thanks, Ed. Don't want to steer anyone wrong if I can help it.

look at crossliners 1377 he put screws with ball bearings in them to cover the holes
personally i dont need a safety, none of my firearms has a safety and havent had any mishaps yet,nocking on wood. keep your finger off the trigger and no mishaps will happen
the dreaded safety spring, here's what I do, I super glue the ball to the spring, then insert the spring into its channel and slide the ball down in place. BUT, I have extras just in case things go awry and the cats not watching. Don't use any air gun with out a safety, if not for you, then for someone else. I order my parts from ABairguns, good service and cheap.
I shoot left hand and the safety is in the way of my trigger finger so I don't use the safety. I plug the holes with 3/16 black plugs I get from lowes.

nice job!
Now I like that :-*
Yes black is cool :-*..I plugged mine w/ ss 4mm allen domehead screws..The head is about 7.5mm..Did a bit of drilling to remove the hex so now it has a steel ball sitting nice and tight.
