I know i have tried to put an autococker detent on it and I had the same problem. The detent was to long and after 20 balls it chopped the detent off. I emailed the supplier for these guns but who knows when they will email back.

the r2 used the same body as the tes/t1/rx etc. and they use spring loaded ball detents

originals are impossible to find nowadays, but cocker detents (same as angels) are fine. just don't screw them all the way in. put a oring (or two) in between the body and the detent to keep it from moving

EDIT: thought it was screwed in all the way. One day I thoguth it felt loose, so i screwed it in all the way and it was too far. I guess it catches when its far enough, but you can go too far if your not careful. I got it at the right point and i put some loctite on it.

Finally got a Kila AC detent to work all I need was the right size o-ring and some love. Also note I have a tex and torid, the stock detents are the same but one hole is better than the other just a little bit (torid). So thats probably why some angel detents work and sometimes AC detents works. Just my 2 cents
