TES Ball Detent

[coolcockerguy]

Hey a buddy of mine has a TES and needs a new detent but we have been unable to track one down online, I heard that autococker detents works, is that true?

www.hotshotpaintball.com used to have TES ball detents in stock, but they dont seem to anymore.

I busted my TES detent before and was told that cocker detents will work BUT only a certain kind...anyone know?

I used to have a 03m (with cocker detents) and I tried to trade them out but tthey didn't fit

I have also heard somewhere that angel ones work but i think that may be bull, best bet it to go down to a proshop (if possible) adn see if they have anything that fits

Or search PBN for "TES Partout" theres usually lots of random tes parts.

I have heard that Angel Detents will work, so I deceided it was time to find out if it was true. I went to e-Bay and got a Angel Kapp delrin ball detent color black and a WDP Angel delrin bullet ball detent made by Custom Products color silver. When I received them the first thing I noticed was the threads are longer (has more threads), but looked the same. When I was screwing them in I thought it felt loose, however after comparing them to the stock one I found they felt the same. I removed them and put 2 o-rings on them and tryed them again...........they fit perfect. I may try some Killa Angel Magnetic Detents in the future.

Here are some pictures of the detents:

Please Note: You Must Get The Round Ones and Not the Hex Shaped Ones.
