Can anyone here fix the hole for the ball detent on my freeflow cocker, maybe like rethread it? it kinda stripped. It is the wire detent.

it is a shame that happened to such a nice cocker, but if you find the thread specifics it shouldn't be too difficult to buy a helicoil for it, or find another way to redo the threads.

if it's a wire detent, the only thing holding it in is one screw in back right? if that hole is stripped, you could always retap it with a larger size, and buy a screw from a hardware store.
but if it's not horribly stripped, maybe just put some plumbers tape on the screw
