Robot666 Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 (edited) So in the process of switching the mag release to left handed the pin that holds the switch in pinged out of the pistol and into it would seem another dimension as I can't find the bloody thing anywhere. Does anyone know where I can get a spare? I tried the real steel canik euro site but it looks like they don't ship to the UK.

Would a small roll pin do the job ? Robot666 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveoc33 Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 You could try contacting kyairsoft. The oem of the canik pistol is armorer works and kyairsoft are the official parts retailer for AW and for WE (kind of the same company). But if it's just a pin then a roll pin may be perfect for the job as Tackle says Tackle and Robot666 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot666 Posted November 28 Author Share Posted November 28 The pin looks like this, so unfortunately a roll pin would be no good. Thanks any way chaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks any way chaps Bugger, that's a weird looking pin, only other thing I can think of that comes close would be a very small R clip, but you'd have to get busy with a couple of pairs of needle nose pliers to get the shape right.

mightyjebus Posted November 28 Share Posted November 28 LCT HK53 uses a similar pin on the rear pin for the receiver. What length do you think it is and I'll check the LCT pin to see if it matches. Robot666 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mightyjebus Posted November 28 Share Posted November 28 The clip is part of the pin highlighted in re above. Might be easier finding an LCT than a Canik part. Failing that, buy a split pin and modify it to fit. Robot666 and Tackle 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot666 Posted November 28 Author Share Posted November 28 That would be perfect I reckon. Thanks buddy I'll try track one down. In the meantime time I'm gonna get my head torch on and scout the floor again for the bloody thing mightyjebus, DerDer and Tackle 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of the airsoft teching experience, being on your knees, looking for a comically small piece. Robot666 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot666 Posted November 28 Author Share Posted November 28 I've ordered a box of R clips I think I should be able to fashion one into what I need Tackle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
