    jerry-rigged replacement for safety spring and ball?

    Long story short, I took apart my emag lowers and lost the spring and ball for the safety and selector switch. I love AGD and I'd like to just buy the replacements, but I'm supposed to play on sat and I don't think they'll be able to get them to me by then plus the springs and BB's are what? $.50?

    Anyone have any luck rigging up some readily availble spring and bb or something to work? I'd really rather not tape my safety in the "fire" position all day!

    Use an o-ring around the selector for a temporary fix...

      putting the gun in "e" mode and leaving in the yellow pin would also kinda work as a saftey
      i think

          Alright, so far the plan is to remove the safety (wow that's creey :S ) and use the yellow pin, selector switch, and air on/off to keep safe, and using an Oring around the selector switch to keep it from moving. Now I need to find a good fitting Oring :)
