MtGoat Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Well I was installing my great Made in the USA M4 magazine tube when I launched the magazine spring and retaining clip. I found the spring but the clip is orbiting with the space station. Where can I get a (inexpensive) retaining clip or two and what does Benelli call it so I get the correct part?

I am sure you could find something similar at a (real) harware store. An internal retaining ring. It is not required for the gun to function.

MtGoat Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share Posted December 30, 2007 Wow, $25 for basically a snap ring. That will show me to make sure I get it seated correctly Thanks Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I am sure you could find a 12 gauge spring retainer that would fit. try browning or mossberg or beretta.... $25 is a little steep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 this is the same thing but for the Black Eagle. If you register with Brownells it drops the price to $15 and change http://www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/store/ProductDetail.aspx?p=6320&title=MAGAZINE%20SPRING%20RETAINING%20RING,%20FIELD&s=15447 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zodiac Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Just cleaned my new m4 today after about 50 rounds (It was dirty) and changed the safety to the opposite side for left handers and also "launched into orbit the spring". Well after about an hour I found it across the room. Next time I'll put tape over the opening or else learn to aim better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
