I thought I read on here about someone using part of a spring from a pen. I may be wrong tho. Luckily I haven't lost mine yet...

I just had that same issue last night, a damn I was pissed. In the process of contacting the ATI guys. Also found a pen spring that looks to be perfect will try that out tomorrow when I have time to tear the gun down again.

Something must be in the water, because I lost mine over the weekend. Wasn't being careful, took the gun apart and the spring is now gone.

I tried several pen springs the other evening and they were all just a fuzz to fat to set down in the slot.

I called ATI yesterday repeated with no answer. Left a message for calling me back, but have yet to hear from them.

I got a hold of ATI this morning. To their credit, they did call me yesterday afternoon and left a voice mail, but I was tied up in meetings and couldn't return their call before closing for the day. They are sending me a replacement spring for free. I also paid for a second spring (because I know I'll lose another one) and a magazine spring. They said that I'd see the items in a few days. Seems like a good company.
