Spares for these guns, like replacement magazines, seem almost impossible to source in the UK.
It really does beg the question as consumers why we should put up with such service from suppliers.
Anyone know where I can get hold of the big black screw in plugs that secure the Co2 bulb in the Tanfoglio Custom/Gold custom race pistols.. I had a spare with each of the pistols when new - but lost them both!

I'm sure one of our resident machinists could knock you up something.
Good deals with these members
How the hell do you lose them??? You don't need to take them out to change bulbs?
If you have one take it to a screw shop or fixings shop if you have one nearby, I am sure they will match it, I doubt its a custom made part.
Far too many guns to mention here. Lets just say more then the wife knows about but still less then I would like
You do have to take them out to change the bulb.. and it's very much a custom part - and badly made.. and it's the spares I've lost.. put them someplace safe when guns were new - and forgot where that was!! .. Now the originals are fecked.. stupid design, metal allen key fitting inside a plastic insert which wears quickly.. that's why they give you a spare with the gun - 'cos they know it's gonna fail.. tried to make my own but cannot match the thread in the mag, tried everywhere.
Pisses me off when manufact's know about a weak design part, so rather than change it/fix it they just give you a spare one to hold you off a bit longer..
Is it a standard "cup point allen grub screw" like the Witness? If so try Googling this description.

Its not the same Baz.
Big plastic job with a metal middle.
Luckily I know where my spares are!

no wurries and I would LOVE to buy more magazines!! but them is rarer than hen's teeth!.. found a spares kit now tho' which includes the offending plug.. in Greece!! http://www.greekairsoft.gr/eshop/pro...d_product=4449
I order mine from here. http://www.pyramydair.com/s/a/Tanfoglio_CO2_Airsoft_Pistol_Magazine_Fits_Tanfogl io_Limited_Limited_Custom_Airsoft_Pistols/4207
Think it took about 3-4 days to get here on priority shipping, I bought 4 as the postage is too high for just one, do it this way then you can sell a couple of them over here and everyone splits the postage cost.

I think these are 6mm, but if you need 4.5mm might be worth an email to them.

re greek airsoft, I've used them for replacement mags for the standard TFW 1911. No problems, fast and all as described on the website. I've just googled "large grub screw' and been given more than a few options. Maybe adapt and off the shelf item?

Edit; just read post 5 - how vexatious.
