Yeah I was talking about the barrel breech screw, so I wont be able to find a matching one and have to get one from crosman? When installing metal washers I used a flathead screwdriver is a bit smaller and it was really tough twist it on. I read after its easier to do it with barrel in open position.

So do I really need brass washers or will these steel ones wear down my actual rifle really fast?

you always want to use metals with different hardenesses in places where a lot of rubbing contact can and you want minimize wear...hardened steel against soft steel or brass against steel work the best..
snce the receiver of the gun is not hardened and getting hardened washer in the right size would be difficult and rather expensive. that makes brass is the best choice...metric washers have been proven to me to be much closer in size. they will have plenty of durability for their low price and are very easy to change if the do get loose

Alright well I found copper ones that fit snug which is softer than the receiver right? Well regardless they work better than plastic ones so I'm keeping them.
