I was given an old air gun. The clamp that holds the pump handle is broken. There are no labels or markings on the gun to indicate the make/model. Can anyone help me find this part?

Zoom in on photo, broken, not bent.
This where one learns about making one’s own parts and the joys of ad hoc solutions.

Thank you! I think I could make this work. But now it seems the item is currently out of stock.

Do you have access to a 3-d printer? That would be an easy part to print.
Even if you don't, it should be a straightforward and fun little project to bend some metal into the part you want.

Try a conduit clamp (spray painted matte black). Just have to figure a way to secure it to barrel.

It is an SMK part # M 528. Protek had some. You might call them.

Thanks for your help. Protek does not have any. I’ll be fabricating it myself, hope it works.

Yup as stated above, it looks like a Chinese made B3. These were made to be discarded ...not fixed.. if you are fixing this one...be aware some of the metal parts may be reaching the end of their service life ...be careful, they make good finger guillotine.
You might want to consider modifying it into a magnetic lock up (with those cheap rare earth magnets).
Space it with a rubber grommet or thin sheets of plastic till you get the proper magnetic "adhesion"
As suggested a conduit clamp might work. Just epoxy the magnet on the flat part.
or find a neodymium magnet with a hole and just secure it with a counter sunk bolt.

Try the B3 parts dealer on Ebay They seem to be very helpful getting direct replacement parts for the B3 and B2 and 1 Archer hardly has anything for these rifles
