   | Stingray Detent Hello, all fellow Brass Eagle owners! Im in the process of modding a Stingray fairly extensively, but Id like to replace the detent. Ive looked for the acrylic detent through google, but have yet to find a place that sells them. I saw on the old BEOG that there was a mention of perhaps using cocker detents. Does anyone have a solution suggestion? Thanks for any help in advance.

| There never was a commerical acrylic detent. We always used a bead (like from a bead shop ) of the same diameter. Works great!

| I went to a JoAnn Fabrics and found what I thought was the same diameter bead, but it was just a little bit smaller. It always ended up popping out. Is there any way that I can get that bead surface built up a little bit so that it doesnt pop out? I was thinking about using some two part epoxy or even hot glue to build it up a bit. Suggestions?

| The actual size is 3/8", though 9mm or 10mm will work as well (3/8" is equal to 9.525mm). I seem to remember using 10mm beads mostly. They'll sit a little lower in the breach. Crimson: You probably grabbed an 8mm, try the bigger sizes.

| Yep 10mm pearls from craft store are the ones. If I'm correct, sting is still up. I'll check my rayparts and see what extras I have. I actually had one that had intelli feed  Later, Blackrain
