I bought the 600 way back in 1963. It has been sitting in the box unused for a majority of those years. I recently decided to take it out of the safe and see if it was still operational. I inserted a Co2 cartridge and capped it and when I pierced the cartridge, the gas immediately leaked out, which was not unexpected. I found detailed disassembly instructions on the internet and ordered a seal kit from Ebay. I do small modifications and repairs to my cartridge and muzzleloading firearms so I decided to replace the seals in the 600. Thanks to the instructions all went well until I had to remove retainer pins that hold the rear valve in the inner tube. I threaded a 6 x 32 screw into the first retainer and it came out as described in the instructions. I threaded the screw into the second retainer and became very unhappy when the screw twisted/broke with the pin still firmly in place. I'm looking for suggestions on how to handle this dilemma. I am ready to send the part out for repair should that become necessary.

Just new to the forum, but just had my Crosman 600 (1958) rebuilt by Henry Ford in SC. He is a well know re-builder/repairer. Might want to contact him.
