You know who you are.
You IZZY owners.
If you haven't lost the o-rungs yet, you will.
Forget to close the breech and touch one off and one or more will go flying...
Inova (I think that is how you spell their name) used to have them in a 10-pack.
No more.
PA has them and recently I needed to add something to an order to get free shipping so I had them add two.
PA used to sell them in a zip-lock with their own part number but this time....
PA shipped them and they came in an envelope from the manufacturer, a source right here in the USA.

IZZY owners should copy this label for future use when PA says they may not have any in stock.
"""On the bottom of the label there is indicated the exact size of these o-rings."""
EAA Sport in Florida has them too.
Rumor has it that the import restrictions on Russian items may be coming to an end so the IZH46M will soon be available again.
Note:
I would appreciate it someone would post this information to the Yellow Forum.
Steve won't let me post....again!!!! 😈
Thanks

Good information.
I had a friend not fully close the breech on my MP-532 last weekend(same guts as IZH46M)
naturally both seals blew out.
Luckily we found one and I had a spare seal kit.
But that only leaves me one if it happens again.

About $10.00 for two from PA.
EAA has a kit that includes piston seal.
I think Timmy Mac has them as well.
In my experience, if you have the spares, you will never (maybe) need them.
When I bought my R1 in 1984, Doc Beeman talked me into buying a "spares" kit.
Piston seal, breech seal, spring.
I finally tired of looking at them on my bench and Motorhead put them in for me a couple of years ago.
The spring (new?) was less powerful than the 30 year old one so a VORTEC kit went in.
Like I said there was a company in Southern California that sold the o-rings for the IZZY.
10 for $18.00.
I had another IZZY a few years ago so I ordered 10 from them.
I gave five to my partner in KS and when I sold my 1st IZZY, I threw them into the package.
I should have kept them.
I do not think that company in SoCal sells them anymore as they are not the company website.
This company has them too:
