What are these thingies called and where can I get another?

[HeMan]

I was cleaning my Valken ASL Kilo the other day and notice I seem to be missing a clip.  As you can see in the picture, the mark shows there clearly was a clip there, like on the rivet above, but it is now nowhere to be seen!

The question is, what are they called (not a circlip, as its a full circle) and where would I be able to get one from?

It looks like something generic, that I might be able to buy from any hardware store, if only I knew what it is called!

Thanks.

They are called retainer clips. You'll need to measure the shaft that it connects to though to get the right size

You could try an e clip too. It's a three quarters of a ring with three tab tooth parts to bind with. I find they last a bit longer when they are removed and then replaced.

Brilliant, once I had the right word to Google I found loads on eBay which will hopefully do the trick.  It seems they are also called startlock clips as well.
