Twist lock assy question

[Watcher]

What goes inside the twist lock assembly?

My mag arrived and one of the sight rail screws is stripped, so I thought I could remove the body by removing the twist lock assembly.
Bad move by me:
I undid the set screw from the bottom of it, and now the pin won't stay up.

Is there supposed to be a spring inside the assembly or a magnet or something?

Thanks.

There is a spring and a allen screw to hold it in. I have one if you need one.

I saw that.

Yeah, the spring must have fallen out. Now might be a good time to get a Doc or Noxx cocker thread adapter. I have one that my friends and I are putting in his m-16 mag, and I tried it in my classic RT. . . it's fun screwing a barrel into a twistlock body. Something about it is just really funny. I guess I'm just easily amused.

Is the screw really tiny? Is it brightly colored or dark?

There were only 3 places I was with the dissasembled rail: my room, my garage, and my basement.

If I have hope to find it I will look...


GOT IT

Luckily it got caught in my tank cover

Now for the stripped screw
