Hatsan flashpup, lost hammer set screw

Made the mistake of trying to adjust the hammer spring by the cap, which works on the Sortie but not the Flashpup.
Long story short, it stopped shooting and trying to get it back to where I started the set screw in the hammer flew out and is unfindable.
Guessing it's M5-8. Anybody know for sure?
Trying to quiet down the flashpup as much as possible and suspect backing off the powerwill do the trick.

If you want to make life easier, just ditch that little screw, and see reply #64

I don't remember what size that little set screw is, unfortunately. I do think it is the same size as the one that locks that rear cup in place though. You could take that one out and make a quick trip to the hardware store, and match it up . I hope that helps.

Be sure the set screw is not lost inside the rifle...which can happen.
(some place in the shop, there must be a ball-detent retirement home….all the little ball detents hanging around telling tales of when they had to work for a living.)
Need a magnetic rake…..and being cheap, I trash picked/made one, but you can buy parts.
If you see a dead refrigerator, they often have long strips of flexible magnets around the door seal (inside the plastic gasket). Slice out a couple of feet of that. Glue it to a dowel, make a long handled ‘T’ that looks a bit like a yard rake.
Every OR I have worked in had a store bought version…..are kind of picky about the count of little needles.

a ball-detent retirement home, you win the internet today for this one.
I’ve been eyeing up these flexible work mats/trays from a veteran owned company, the name escapes me. I thought these trays would be nice for the small parts to fly over before heading to the retirement home.

Maybe use a magnetic sign like they use for advertising on the sides of cars....
