    I have a Kimel AP-9 with a broken spring retainer buffer and a broken clear plastic piece from the trigger group (not sure what to call it). Can someone make these 2 pieces or know where I can find them?

    Thanks!

    I have it in one of my manuals.
    Maybe cross referencing parts under this model will help

    I remember the AP's offered at gun shows and such during the early 90's. They were passed on as the cheaper version of the Tec 9. How many parts they truly share is beyond me, but as I understood it back then, they were nearly identical except for the lower and the sights. And the price tag of course. When I get a few minutes I will search my parts resources and see if I can find replacements.

    Retaining clips

    Do the springs and spring guides appear undamaged?

    The only parts that appear damaged are the buffer and that clear plastic piece from the trigger group (I'm not sure what it is called). Seems like a bonehead move to put cheap plastic in the FCG. The first 3 pics show an unbroken piece. The last 2 pics are mine.
