There's another thread where I extensively covered the reliability upgrades.

Great to hear, I hope that I will be so lucky, but with my luck, likely not. Lulz

Hey,
Could you tell me what replacement screw to look for and where to get it?
Thanks!

I have no idea, I went to a jewellery shop and optician and none of them could help me. I have no idea what the threading is, but I know the MAG spring set has a screw with it. Otherwise ill see if I can find the watch where I jacked the screw from and ill mail it to you if you need.

Found one in the my MAG spring set - good call!

You have a MAG 5-7 spring set? Would you happen to have an extra nozzle return spring you'd be willing to sell?

Just a note:

Avoid the Guarder control set. Sure they look sweet, but two of the pieces broke in less than 100 rounds. Takedown lever snapped and the right side safety blew off. I don't even understand how that happens.
