Failing that, get a third hand to hold down the plunger while you stuff the rest of the stuff back in.

I think I got mine from Numrich OR the CMP, can't remember, but I DO know they're indispensable and $40 is too much for some bent sheetmetal.

$22.50 -> http://e-sarcoinc.com/m1m2carbineboltassemblyto.aspx

Fulton, you can buy a better part, but you can't pay more!
