So I bought what looked like a very nice Speed King off the bay last week; checked it out when I got it home, seemed OK but a little weak compared to what I remember from playing one way back when. Today I just got around to taking it apart to see what is up and one side is completely missing the friggin compression spring and piston! What an as*hat. I'm so annoyed. I checked to make sure the bearing was in place, which it was, so now I need to get a piston and spring... I was able to find the spring online but I can't seem to find the piston. Anyone here have one or can direct me to the correct place to get one?
