Hi Bobba.

I know its been some time since you had the problem but I was wondering how you got on, as I have the same problem with a gun I've just bought. Its marked as 'locking piece' on the only diagram of this gun I have been able to find (http://cinedux.com/acvoke-airguns.php).

In my pistol the 'locking peice' is missing completely, and some bits of tape on the outside (where it was presumably attached at one time) are the only trace of it I still have! Did you find an original bit somewhere, have something made up, or give up?

I don't understand this at all, the "Locking piece" in hidden inside when the action is closed.

Do you mean the backstrap lever is missing?

Or do you mean the backstrap lever AND the locking piece are BOTH missing?

Hi Magicesperanto - thanks for getting back to me.

Sorry I wasn't clear. I'm using the terminology in this doc - http://cinedux.com/acvoke-airguns.php - as I don't have anything else to refer to. The piece I am missing is the longish internal part (B) with a hook at the top end and which is apparently mounted on the handle screws. I'm assuming that the one in my gun had been removed pending repair, but was lost at some time.

By the way, if you still have the broken part I would be interested in buying it from you, as I'm sure that repairing it would be easier than trying to build something from scratch.
