Bolt Stop Spring

[shotguntom]

I need a new bolt stop spring for my Heym SR20. Does anyone have any recommendations on where to source the new spring from?

Do we know or can we ascertain it's type and size?

You need to measure the wire thickness.

Then go shopping but if you're worried I can see if I can match something for you from my stock. Just need the wire thickness.

I have taken the action and trigger unit out to remove the bolt stop for closer inspection and it looks like there is excessive wear causing the bolt to ‘slip’ up it, compress the stop and the bolt to be removed.








Thoughts are to file the surface down to a flat stop again. Open to ideas though!

I wouldn't file it but would a stronger spring work?

Yea, ill try the spring first before I do anything more drastic. Cheers for responses!
