    No.4 front trigger guard screw washer

    I need a few... some rifle have not got a washer and this will seems to you a bit odd and ridicolous but, i prefer to have a washer between terigger guard and trigger guard front screw. The Whole thing is stronger in my opinion. How could i rebuild a washer ?

    The single coil square section WASHER, screw, front trigger guard is a bog standard off-the-shelf engineering part Bow. You shoukld be able to get then from any engineering supplier. There will certainly be a VERY close metric equivalent.

    But before the day is out I expect one of the forumers will have offered to send you a few for the cost of the postage.........

  3. Thank You to Peter Laidler For This Useful Post:

    http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rondella_(meccanica)

    First picture , the washer at your right. This particular model i can't find here in continental Europe.

    Anyone would earn some money selling me a fistfull of these washers?

    Well I have a drawer full of them. Common-or-garden "Federringe" as we say here in Mauserland:

    As Perugia is probably not well endowed with DIY stores - try asking in a car repair shop.

    No, I'm wrong, there is a possibility:

    Bow, I think you could try looking yourself! Keyword "bricolage"

    Don't know if you want to order from the U.S., but Numrich has the washer you need. They do ship overseas (see the fourth question).

    Thanks Dad. Numrich applies a 35$ international order fee. In addition The washer costs 2,5 $. In my opinion that's too much.
