| I just bought a used 98 Custom (my first PB gun) and noticed the rear buffer O-ring was just hanging loose inside behind the bolt. I was wondering if anyone has a fix for me. |

| The buffer o-ring is just there to provide some shock absorption from the hammer (or rear-bolt as the manual calls it) slams backwards into the end-cap when the action cycles. |
