Magazine Ring Screw

Post by mr surveyor »

Where could I find a magazine ring screw for my R92 44 mag? I just noticed today the absence of the screw head missing on the left side of the magazine ring and nothing remaining of the screw between the barrel and the magazine .... but it appears the tip of the factory screw is still in the right side of the ring. Even if I had the replacement screw, I'm not equipped to remove a tiny screw tip from the ring. But, I believe my first order of business would be to find the proper replacement screw ... worry about finding someone qualified to install it then.

For what it's worth, the ring isn't "loose", and I don't know how many rounds have already been shot with the screw missing.

Update ... already.

I called my ffl buddy for advice, and asked if he knew of any remaining gunsmiths in the area now. He gave me a name, address and phone number for a guy that he said has been "in business" for a year or so - and he's just around the corner (about 3 miles) from me. I called the "new guy" and he was very familiar with the R92, and understood my need exactly. I'll take it to him Thursday morning. :)

Think I purchased one or two firing pins, and some spare screws.
Wanted a ejector collar, but they were out when I made my order, $9.00, but they say tooled steel.

Finally, I remembered to ask.... is Jacksfirst the same as the old Jack's Gun Parts? I have bought some hard to find gun parts from Jack's Gun Parts in the past - 10-15 years ago.

I went to JackFirst website and saw that they had a disclaimer stated that some (many?) parts were not interchangeable between the older and newer R92 (M92) offerings. They do note on the individual parts both the part description and the part number. I do not have a part number listing to pick the right part and not only do the pictured parts look identical .... I don't even have the factory "part" to even compare to the pictures. In this particular case it's the screw for the front barrel/magazine band. How would I know which part number to order?

And there is the mag plug screw, it keeps the plug in the mag tube so the spring doesnt shoot across the room, dont ask me how i know, ive launched many a mag springs in the past.

You could call them and ask just to make sure
