Hi Hibby83
I tried Popperts Guns. Not available. Thanks for the info, it was worth the call

Thank you Hibby83,
I'll Call Popperts tomorrow!

Thank you again!
That is the bushing I’m looking for. Metal NOT rubber. I said rubber by error. The previous owner jammed a rubber grommet into the handle to hold the pin in place.

no, it's the grommet that holds the release pin and spring inside the operating handle knob.
thanks for the taking the time to reply!
