I'm new here. Hope somebody can help me out.
My late father bought a 25 cal (6.35mm) Model 11 "Automatic Pistol" from a Liberty Arms Corp store in Phoenix Arizona way back on January 6, 1968. I still have the receipt! It's in excellent condition and may never have been fired. I decided to separate the slide and give the gun a cleaning and oiling in preparation of taking it to a nearby NRA range. Unfortunately, the spring loaded slide release button at the rear of the slide popped off. The button is about 6 mm in diameter. It's somewhere in the room, but I'm having a devil of a time finding it. I wonder if you'd be so kind as to help me find a replacement? I know Walgreens and other stores sold quite a few of them between the 1940's and 1960's. Any help would surely be appreciated. Thanks and stay safe and in good spirits.
