Spare 2824 date jumper anyone?

RetDevilDog · December 13, 2020

Ok so just introduced myself and, yup, looking for help.

Over the last two days I disassembled and reassembled a practice 2824 that I purchased off the Bay for this very reason.

The good news is after a few mishaps and one episode of crawling on the floor looking for a wayward spring, I was able to complete the job.

Now, with that said, I would be really proud of my accomplishment if not for one thing and, thus the topic title. I in my rookiness managed to break the arm on the date jumper. All else works but the date wheel won't function properly without it.

So, would anyone happen to have a spare laying around that they wouldn't mind giving up?

I'm also going to check online to purchase one but not sure of the cost and what I should spend on a cheap Chinese knockoff 2824. Matter of fact, it is identical to the one Mark didn't recommend to purchase. But, a great one to learn on IMO.

thanks in advance

Ooh-Rah!
