I agree with you Don, heating the part was not the best solution. I did it out of frustration and I also wanted to see if putting more of a bow in the spring would make it function correctly (the new shape seems to be correct). Thats why I want to get it fixed with a new part as soon as possible.

I ordered the first part from a GunBroker seller named "What". (It was the only straw colored one I could find) It appears to be original but was a tad to tall but I believe the bigger issue was that it was flat and not bowed enough to provide enough spring tension. http://www.gunbroker.com/item/614814117

I have ordered the second replacement from Numrich Gun Parts (Hopefully this was not a mistake as well) Has anybody had any luck with them? I guess I will know soon enough...

As always thanks for the input.
