PhotoRecon Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Anyone have a source for the Czechmate slide stop pin without handle? On backorder for a couple years from Cz. I can't find any in stock anywhere in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasdawg Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I ordered 5mm HSS tool stock off amazon and made my own. It was all a dremel operation. Flatten one end and put a slot in it with a cut off wheel. Just copy the stock dimensions. Cut each piece to length. 200mm piece for $5,,, It's working for me,,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhotoRecon Posted September 17, 2022 Author Share Posted September 17, 2022 Hey texasdawg: Great solution !!! I have the dremel etc. so just the need the stock which I found on Amazon as you described. Thanks for the info!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC3D Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Interesting.. Do you have any pics of your finished product? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasdawg Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 The three I made were for another's gun I was working on. He has them all. The only difference was the one's I made were bright HSS and the CZ ones are a dark finish. Really, the only important specs are the diameter of the rod you use and where one puts the slot for the spring leg that holds it in. The flat and chamfer on the end just allows it to be inserted easy. Just copy the stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powder Finger Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Has seems hard always used drill rod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhotoRecon Posted September 26, 2022 Author Share Posted September 26, 2022 Ordered the bar stock from Amazon and they just arrived. These are 7+ 7/8s long. Plan to cut the groove with a cutting wheel and file a flat spot to ease getting past the retention spring... I'll be out of primers long before I use these up...lol...

CC3D Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Honestly this is something I'd buy a few of if the finished product turned out nicely. Keep us posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yigal Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 I made it from pins of the correct length that you can buy for a roller bearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhotoRecon Posted September 27, 2022 Author Share Posted September 27, 2022 Now that I have the rods I marked the length and the slot for the retaining spring with a marker. The dremel with the flex cable tool and a metal cutting disk was the only tool I used. Cut the spring slot first. The disk cuts quickly. Freehand I beveled that end and then back on forth to reduce the diameter just like the factory part. Finally, cut off the rod with the disk and that was it. Total time less than 10 minutes. I have no skills for this sort of thing but it worked out pretty good. If I knew someone with a CNC etc I would have them make a jig or miter box thingee to make this a breeze.
