GarethR Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Hi guys, one of the lips on the piston seems to have broken off and I have no idea where to get a new one from, can anyone suggest a website or shop that does the parts, ideally in the UK but dont mind if it's US. I have the Beretta AL391 Urika Sport 12g S/A Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the Beretta AL391 Urika Sport 12g S/A Thanks in advance Contact the importer GMK and see how they can help http://www.gmk.co.uk/ I have found them to be very good so far and there's certainly no need to be looking abroad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Kelly Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Do a search, I asked about a recurring 303 fault and was given a link to an Italian firm who supply beretta parts. They're much cheaper than GMK and being in Europe you don't have any import duty or customs charges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the Beretta AL391 Urika Sport 12g S/A Thanks in advance I'm curious, does it look as if the crack started near one of the drilled holes at the bottom of the slots in the piston ? I ask because that looks like a weak spot to me, the blast will try to flex the piston "lips" outwards and the bottom of the slot looks like it will take the strain.

GarethR Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Thanks for the help guys & cheers for that link kdubya! It seems to have just snapped one of the lips off Cat, a clean break. When I say the lip I mean the bit that prevents it from sliding right inside the Gas Cyclinder! God knows how I've done it but I will be honest and say it seems to have been like that for a while I've only just noticed though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what caused it ? Will you let us know if you find out ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethR Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Certainly will Cat, I think mines the reinforced one aswell! I think it could be user error Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VicW Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 I've used the Italian firm several times and they are very good but the Italian postal system is a bit slow so allow about 10 days for delivery. Vic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarethR Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Thanks guys. LONG STOCK was yours the one with the 4 seperate 'lips' or was it the one with just 'a lip' right round? Thanks for the help so far all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
