Title: Looking for Bear Latch part Help!!
Post by: Larry m on July 16, 2012, 03:18:00 PM

Any idea where I might be able to purchase a replacement for a B Riser. Unfortunately this part of the latch is bent and does not line up properly. Appreciate Any Thoughts!!!    (http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll292/toxo-collector/Articles437.jpg)   (http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll292/toxo-collector/Articles435.jpg)[IMG]

Would it be possible to take it to a fab shop (automotive) and have them bend it back for you? Might save you some $?

No guarantee but shooting the mag risers myself as well as being a toolmaker I would give it a try to straighten it for you...NC
