so a while ago I managed to completely ruin the "bullet (BB) counter" on my airsoft pulse rifle. I have been trying to figure out to repair it. I contacted G&P to see if it was possible to get a replacement but I never heard about back from them. A friend of mine who is heavily into electronics told me the how I can probably fix it. I would have him do it for me, but seeing how he is in the Army and just recently returned to Germany after a 19 month stent in the sandbox, he cant really help me too much.
Well i describe to him what I needed to repair it, and he told me that what I most likely needed was an "Opto Relay Switch". I have not had any luck finding this part though. so i am hoping that someone here is into electronics and can tell me where i can find this part, even better have a link they can give me.
any assistance here would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
Tommy

i think he means the "light sensitive LEDs"
its the unit in the barrel, one LED illuminates and on the other side is the sensitive LED
as a BB passes, light is blocked and it counts down..

I bought some sensor type LED's, but the part that is in the original sensor that came with the kit, which looks like an LED bulb to me, but I am not really knowledgable about electronics in any form. but the original part only has 1 wire/prong coming out of the 'bulb' part, and there are only 3 connecting wires that go to the "bulbs". Whereas the LED sensors that i bought at the store, each bulb has 2 wires/prongs coming off of it. this is where I am at a loss.
i have, again, contacted G&P to see if there is any way to order a replacement sensor from them directly. we'll see what they say if they even bother to reply.
