Does anybody have or can anybody tell me where I can find some HK takedown pins? quite a few GSG and ISSC rifles come with silly screw pins but these can be replaced quickly with HK short push pins like the ones used to keep am MP5 together.
Anyone got some in a drawer or know of a UK shop that sells them?
Ta.

wouldn't be too hard to make a set if you know of anyone with a little lathe. The spring isn't that much of an issue, just use little R clips or bend a spring up. I have a set on my Walther MP5 and can measure them for you if you need it.

If you go down this route make sure you measure both sets of first as i'm not sure the GSG bolts and Walther pins are the same dimensions.
I got a set for my GSG-5 when I had it but I can't for the life of me remember where from. I actually think I may have got them from the US via Jeff/Pharadella (spelling!) on this forum

Back in the day when I had one of the first GSG MP5 copies I bought them from this US company

I don't recall the cost of postage / import duty being too bad as they are less that $20
I think they arrived in a jiffy envelope and came through my letterbox without import duty.
