most of the ccm rifles used the stylus on the image below.

the spring he lists Williams 10A-197 as a replacement. He has those.

you can also try pinball resource or other pinball parts suppliers with the part numbers. 289-2510 for the entire arm assembly would be ideal ... or 254-2547. You'd need to measure your arm to figure out if it's one of those.

I'd guess the insulating washers were fiber/bakelite/plastic ... the stylus needs to slide up/down in it so definitely not rubber. You can probably make the pieces from plastic washers/standoffs from a hardware store.

I'm going to the pacific pinball museum warehouse on monday and will take a look in a chicoin rifle game. Unfortunately, I don't think they have any parts machines to scrounge in and I think their asking price for entire project machines is too high for that to be a reasonable way to get the parts you need.

here's how a stylus assembly looks on a rodeo ... or at least on the parts that were in a disassembled rodeo at the pacific pinball museum warehouse. The stylus tip is worn down, and I shoulda taken another picture showing the solder lug with wire attached ... but you can see it in the parts manual page.

afaik, the museum has never assembled the rodeo, so they never obtained the paperwork. It didn't have any in it when it was donated.

I'd like to hear how long the solder blob lasts

if it wears down quickly, silver solder may last longer, but otherwise it seems like a pretty reasonable repair that may last for years.
