Small Metal Gun Knob!?

Hey all,

First of all, sorry if this has been mentioned before in the forum, I did a search but couldn’t find the answer!

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get hold of one of the small gun knobs for the gun. I’ve looked in a few places here in the UK but can’t find anything that resembles the knob on the gun! Also, I know a couple of guys on here make the metal knobs but it doesn’t look like they sell them separate…and I didn’t want to be on a huge waiting list for just one knob, i’m impatient.

Anyway, any info would be much appreciated!

Thanks guys - J

Which knob are you referring to? By “small knob” do you mean the tiny one on the right side of the gun?

It’s actually a shaft collar for the green lever. Although no one is selling them separately at this time, they’re pretty easy to make out of bits of dowel and styrene with aluminum paint (cosmetic, but not functional).

I know that jackdoud has been researching possible shaft collars: Thrower Shaft Collar (small knob) Options - Proton Packs - GBFans.com

Ye, it’s the shaft collar. It’s such a pain to find. I saw the thread you posted, Jack will hopeful come up with the right one sometime soon! Just thought i’d see if anyone knew of anyone else who did them.

Thanks for letting me know anyway mate! :slight_smile:

I’m pretty much at a standstill on my search. It’s not any kind of “standard” shaft collar and isn’t an easy item to search for as it brings up so many other things. Even if I find it and someone who sell it you’d probably have to order a few thousand which isn’t really feasable.

Damn!!! The search continues!!!

I’ll have a resin one coming from my TC gun kit but it’d be nice to have all metal knobs. I’ll keep checking in the UK and let you know of anything turns up!

Thanks guys.
