Lost a ball bearing from my KWA G18C

grimreefer · January 22nd, 2009, 00:23

There's a little tiny ball bearing that acts as a hop up bucking in my KWA G18 that I've lost forever. Anyone know what size it is, or possibly where to get one?

I read a thread where somebody had made a substitute out of a small bead of solder. I was wondering if I could do this, but make an accurate size by taking a mold of the dimple in the hop rubber? But looking at it now...I seem to remember the bb being quite a bit smaller than the dimple. Am I wrong?

Thanks!

u can cut off one of the beads on like a dog tag necklace and use that.

You can make one out of a ball of solder as well but it's just guess work unless you have a reference to look at.

http://www.airsoftparts.ca also has a replacement.

I will have a spare hop up ball if you still need one - PM me your snail mail addy and I will send it out to you no charge, just glad to help.
