Imis Twohofon,SASS # 46646 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 While cleaning a pair of Gauchos for Jersey Bratt, I realized that the cylinder bushing (between cylinder and frame, pin passes through it) is missing from one pistol. I'm sure I lost it at some point and didn't know it was supposed to be there. Brownells is no help, havent received a response from Beretta, if I remember right they own Taurus now. I have one so I can have one made, pricey, if I have to. Im open to enlightenment. Thanks Imis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barleycorn, SASS #76982 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Contact Taurus direct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imis Twohofon,SASS # 46646 Posted January 18, 2017 Author Share Posted January 18, 2017 I contacted Taurus and was able to order replacement parts. I guess it made too much sense for me to think of contacting an international seller direct. Thanks Imis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.W. Sinclair Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 After I spent some time on my hands and knees looking for one of those bushings, I degreased the cylinders on all five of my Gauchos and Lock-Tited them in. They haven't fell out again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imis Twohofon,SASS # 46646 Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 Since I was unaware of their presence I wasn't looking for it when I reassembled the pistol last time. I will be now. And loctite sound like a good idea. Imis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
