Assassin Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 It fell out of a quadrajet carb. When working in a auto shop there were always parts left over. Just so there weren't too many it was ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Devil Dale Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 It's not a stock (unmodified) cylinder lock plunger from a Ruger. They are quite a bit longer in relation to diameter. Having the precise measurements might help. Depending on size, it could be off the pawl mechanism from a NV. Had you worked on one recently?

Three Foot Johnson Posted September 3, 2019 Author Share Posted September 3, 2019 Oh yeah, pretty regularly. It just doesn't seem to be any gun part I'm familiar with... .303" long .187" diameter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Could it be part of the recoil spring assembly of a 1911? ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrison Joe, SASS #60708 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 My guess? Cylinder Latch Spring Plunger from NM Vaquero. Gun will work almost as well without it, latch may be harder to operate and spring may wear out faster. Very easy part to lose when juggling all the parts needed in alignment when attaching grip to frame. Good luck, GJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that at first, but it's too large in diameter, like Dusty Devil Dale said above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend who used to work (prior to robotics) for a major auto manufacturer said the same thing about auto assembly lines that moved along too fast for all of the bolts to be installed. The employees there called it "stealing cars". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
