Igarciatf Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Hi, I´m having trouble to find a rear sight elevation spring for my Stock II. Does anyone knows the dimension of ti? Might order it from any spring manufacturer. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJB Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Believe it or not, I called EAA and they sent me one gratis. Is your Stock 2 an EAA gun? I've had trouble finding one otherwise, unless you look on a European site. Just have to find a similar type spring & cut it. BTW: Did you lose the original because the head of the screw sheared? If so, shim underneath the sight with a piece of rubber to keep the sight from flexing under recoil and you'll drastically reduce the metal fatigue to the screw head and greatly increase it's longevity.

Igarciatf Posted January 1, 2022 Author Share Posted January 1, 2022 Hi, I´m from Spain, my Stock is directly from Tanfoglio. I´ve been looking in different european websites but can´t find it either and LPA won´t answer my emails. If not I´ll just take the spring out and measure it and zero the gun again. I want a spare one (I do have two screws) because I saw in a competition a rear sight flop open, it broke the screw and lost the spring, the guy couldn´t finish the competition with his gun.

BJB Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 BTW: When you zero your gun, count your clicks to remove the screw, clean it, apply blue Loctite, reinsert the screw to the proper number of clicks, let cure for a day, shim rubber up under the sight.

I would recommend a cut down extractor spring. It should have enough tension and be small enough in diameter to fit. These are easy to find.
