Wanted pellet probe spring

Post by silent shooter » 29 Nov 2014, 17:47

Hi I know it's a long shot but I'm looking for a pellet probe spring for a Mk1 rapid .22, ive trolled the net and called supplier's with no joy.
If anyone knows of anywhere I can get one or has one sitting in a parts box I can buy I'd be very grateful.

Cheers Geoff

Dunno what the world is coming to when respectable members get to trolling and probing - especially when sitting. :angel:

I'm usually quite crap at word smithing. :D

Never even seen one but if it's a normal compression spring have you thought about the local hardware / tool stockists ? The one we use has millions of springs, it would take you about three weeks to go through them :think:

The spring thats in it is knackered so might be a bugger to match, but yes ill give it a try I was hoping someone might know where I could get one or have a spare or one left over from a rapid they no longer have.Cheers anyway ill let this run a few days incase I get a result :thumbup:
