    Auto Response frame spring, where can I find a replacement?

    So I got a bunch of Automag markers and gear and am going through it. I found one of the Proline Auto Response frames in the pile with no return spring and cannot find an exact replacement. Anyone know where I can get a replacement, know of a comparable replacement, or has one that I can purchase?

    Thanks!

      I guess I have to email them to see if they have it? I didn't see it on their website.

        You wont see it there. These frames and parts have been out of circulation for more than 10 years...

          I am aware they are out of production and have been for some time. Thank you for your help, I sent them an email.

            Pro-Line and Pro-Team are / were two different companies. Pro-Line was a US company that went under in the early 90s. They made accessories like the Autoresponse frame.

            Pro Team (PTP) was owned by Armson and based out of S. Africa.

            I would say your best bet is going to Lowe's or another hardware store and looking through their "miscellaneous" bin near the fasteners that usually has a few coil springs in it.
            My feedback

            Made in USA - it matters.

              Thanks for the info, I probably will end up going to a hardware store then.
              Found some spring info after snooping around a bit, hopefully it is accurate (it was off this site so I am sure it is).
              Overall length = 1.553"
              Coil length = 1.150"
              Coil diameter = 0.245"
              wire diameter = 0.027"
              # of winds in the coil = 37

                I just got some "Proline AutoResponse Parts" from Pro Team/Benchmark who made all of those frames...as far as I know.

                  Pro-Team is a licensed DEALER of Armson products, NOT OWNED by them. Two way different things.
