While constantly tacking my gun apart and back together, I sometime lost the ball latch (Thing that keeps the gun from double feeding) Right now I am using some electrical tape, that works alright, but I was wondering where I could buy a replacement? I know I can buy the replacement kit from countypaintball, but all I really need is the ball latch and I don't feel like spending 30 bucks on it. Thanks.

I wrote tippmann an Email since they were already closed by the time I tried to call, and my 'local' proshop isn't so local, so I think I will just take my chances with Tippmann. Thanks though.

since about may of 2001 tippmann started charging for commonly lost parts ie screw ball detents!

a minimum of a dlaler per i tem and $5 for shipping so it will cost $6 for a ball detent

if a power tube craks or somthing like that then they will replace it free

they got sick of losing money on shipping of hundreds of screws and ball detents week after week

I got a ride over to the nearest pro shop (45 mins :pissed: ) and bought one, $4, rip off, but cheaper then getting it from tippmann and no wait, thanks for the help guys
