Here's how I would fix it
1 of 2 ways
#1 unscrew the shooter assy and file/grind the shooter rod *outside* the game - keeps shavings out of the game
#2 pull the shooter, clamp it in the 'pulled' position, and cut the knob off the shooter then carefully release the clamp
Either of these ways, you don't get a cabinet full of shavings
wow imagine how the ball was.
had one exactly like that, pulled the knob, used a vise-grip on the outside, cut the knob, thats what i did.
How many times do you think you would have to plunge the ball without a shooter tip in order for it to look like that?
I've cleaned a couple up that were that bad, and been able to reuse them. It wasn't *that* much shorter!
