RAP spring and ball bearings 1 Year, 11 Months ago  
Does anyone know what size spring and ball bearing that the rap has below the handle? the first time I took it apart I ended up losing the ball bearing (the small ones). Any pics or description would be helpful so I can get this back together correctly.

I told you lol. Use the spring from a bic pen (you will need to cut it) and you can use a bb. If you rheem out the whole with a drill.

I used a BB and trimmed a spring from a ball point pen. Just like Smokes said.

Spring is in the side pushing the bb outward.

Hey Swider,


http://www.rcudesigns.com/ecommerce_090.htm

I have bought from them before and very helpful.

They sell the spring and ball kit for 6 bucks if you have to have the correct stuff.

When I installed mine I took off the handle and when I put it back on it didn't click anymore. Is this a problem?
