I let someone use my P5 and they lost the nut that goes on the cross bolt for the barrel swivel. I have checked all metrics and American thread type, but can't, find a match? Do you think it may be a British thread? Where can I get parts for this gun? It is an older model.
Thanks

Check Chambers, maybe you can get the size from their diagrams and find one locally. If not, order from them.

Not sure if this is yours, but it's a start:

It should be metric however, the thread count (threads per inch in the U.S.) maybe 40 or more, this is common on U.S. firearms, even 46 tpi on some older U.S. guns.
So, unless you have a "special" diameter (non-std) the diameter is not the issue, it is the thread count.
As a standard, threads in the U.S. are counted per inch, metric are counted in millimeters of thread... pull the bolt out and count the threads here's a link to a chart hope it helps http://www.boltdepot.com/fastener-information/Printable-Tools/US-and-Metric-Thread-Sizes.pdf (http://www.boltdepot.com/fastener-information/Printable-Tools/US-and-Metric-Thread-Sizes.pdf)
PS Are you sure that the "nut" that is missing is not an insert type or locking nut?

i looked at my diana 5g and the nut your looking for has a shoulder that goes in the frame to center it ,looks like it is a special order .at least mine is that way so i belive i'd get with umarex and get 1 but remember umarex is slow like snail mail . good luck

Thanks Robert:
I looked at mine today and am wondering if the bolt that is in it is the wrong to start with? I checked out all the other internet diagram sights mentioned and none match what I have. I looked at the box it came in and it says mod. 5M then the serial number it matches the gun, but the gun says P5 magnum. I will contact umarex next. Thanks everyone for your help
