Pistol piece info

[el maipino]

I need to buy one of these for one of my pistols. Can anyone tell me what they are actually called and if anyone has a site that sell them?.

[40apple40]

it's called a circlip (pronounced sir-clip).
say it was for a sight pivot pin, it'd be called a site pivot pin circlip.:)

Thanks, just need to find someone who sells them now.

You might have more luck asking for an E-clip, model shops are usually well stocked with them as they are used extensively in RC race car suspension.

I think you'll find these a known as an "E" clip, because of the shape :) Try an auto shop, do take your old one for sizing tho :)

Ahhhhhhh I know , I had to replace that on my PPK .

You can get them in halfords but will probably have to buy a pack , best bet would be to source one at a motor factors etc
