Anybody have any suggestions for material for the foam oil wiper for the 880 series?
As Daisy's supply of the seal kits which contain them is non-existent at present,
those are the only item I lack. (Seals I have plenty. and O-rings as well...)

You can lead a man to water, but you can't keep him from urinating in it.

I'd use filter foam. Most of them are designed to be used with oil for better filtering capacity, so they'll be up to this task. Make a punch to cut out the ring shape.

One can use felt cut to fit also, like the felt from warm winter boots, old boot liners might make your gun smell funny

Furniture protector pads. A wide range of precut sizes and thicknesses and no funky feet smell. Unless, of course, that’s what you want.

Old thread but I cut the rectangular piece of foam that comes in the "made in Spain" Daisy wad utter container. The 250 count plastic box.

I just reworked some old 747 and 777 air pistols. The foam rings had hardened and shrunk and literally crumbled when I took the guns apart. I replaced them with a kit containing polyurethane O-rings and instead of foam wipers, it uses 5 split teflon rings. The splits and tiny space between the rings, 5 per gun, seems to hold plenty of oil, and those rings should last much longer than foam.
