Goodmorning!
I recently acquired a Sterling Arms Model 300 .25 Auto pistol. It's not the type of gun I usually purchase but the price was right and what the heck.
I figured considering the shape (perfect condition) and vintage (mid 80's, American Made) it was worth the $75 I paid for it.
The gun appears to work fine but seems to jam on about every other shot. I took the ENTIRE thing apart and am 1/2 way through cleaning and reassembly. Any other tips that might help it feed better? I know the clip was loaded full for several years...the spring may be shot.
Any suggestions on reasonable places to pick up replacement parts? I looked online and there are quite a few retailers with parts...however I just can't see spending $30 for a clip. I just wanted to get a feel for whether or not there are cheaper sources for clips.
Thanks!
