Fix my gun TM22

Hey everyone. Just got a RIA imports TM22, brought it out today for its first real target shooting. Put around 200 rounds through it and at the end, the magazine catch button popped out. It seems the threads on it are stripped so the catch button screw won’t thread into it. Has anyone else had this problem? Or know where to get metal one?

Sfrc sells replacements. 3d printing or extended mag release kits are also likely options. The metal release button from the metal version of the rifle may also be an option.

Yeah I looked on sfrc but their shipping was almost 100$ for a 9$ part… I only live 3 hrs away. Is this not the metal version? The whole gun is metal. The only plastic part on it is the catch release button. As for 3d printing I’m assuming I would have to make my own cad file? I can’t find any online.

Oof that's crazy shipping. There might be other retailers out there. Odell was fantastic to deal with on the warranty side - unsure how that's being handled now but maybe worth checking into?
