I recently purchased an A&K M60VN, but it's loaded with low end white metal pieces. Now, this wouldn't be a problem if this LMG sat on the floor as a show piece but I play my guns - and play them hard.

So far I've broken the barrel retention lever - looked like Swiss cheese where it broke. I also broke the bipod mount. The next piece that's going to break is the carry handle.

The reason for this post to the "Upgrades & Modifications" section is to see if anyone knows where I can get steel parts for these white metal parts? Or if someone has upgraded these parts and can tell me where to purchase them.

The parts I'm looking for are:
the carry handle
the bipod mount
and the barrel retention lever (not sure of the correct name but it's in this picture within the red circle)

I've emailed a few replica and gun dealers out of the US and I am waiting for a reply, but, I thought I'd still try here.

Any help appreciated.
