Update: After a couple of hours of searching I managed to find the missing piece. With the help of a bit of masking tape it is now back in the rifle where it should be!

Thanks to this video, I was able to take apart and repair a leaking O ring where the brass tube goes into the CO2 pressure chamber in the buttstock. After disassembling it and looking at the parts, I discovered the original O ring had hardened and wasn't sealing properly. A new O ring, put it all back together, and it works flawlessly. Thanks for the help, mate. couldn't have done it without you. for those wondering, I've had the rifle for a couple years with no leaks, and used it a lot in that time. in this case, the leak started after it got carelessly knocked over a couple times. This can cause the buttstock to slightly bend to the right or the left, which can unseat that brass tube and O ring where it goes into the pressure chamber. an old hard O ring won't conform back to the tube when that happens, and then you get a leak. It's an easy fix, if you have some really small O rings and this video to show you how to get it apart.

Handy video buddy, thanks for taking the time to make a video. The question of why there's a mixture of slotted and philip screw heads is an easy one, the slotted ones are the ones you can obviously see when the guns together (in keeping with the real Winnie) and the hidden ones are all self tapping philips that you'll only see once you start to disassemble. You've done a grand job though buddy 🙂
