Missing Button

[Stephen]

But latch is still there?

Simple hack. No need to find a pen or something to push it down with.

Button should be something even the mildly handy can fabricate from copper.....a little patination and your good to go.

Field Repair. :)P

Field repair is fine, but with a little extra care a completely acceptable "restoration" is possible.... shouldn't be terribly time consuming.  I am sure you are more than capable of doing an excellent job, DRAGON HUNTER!

 

Cheers,

"Well, excuse me".  Your post had no context, my comments were directed generally, and if my compliment was offensive- I retract it.  Apparently, I Am just "A Wild and Crazy Guy".

I love it Stephen!

 

My spring is gone on my Mantetsu. Maybe you could fix it for me! Ha!

[Stephen]

Thank you Bruce. Kind of response i was looking for. I could if you bought one off ebay and it didn't line up.

That's why you're the Oyabun.........

They do turn up on Ebay.

I've bought one in the past, but it's not a good fit. I'll take the spring part off the back of it and have someone spot weld it to my Mantetsu latch. I don't know why I didn't think of it sooner. Thanks guys!
