So I got sick of looking around for something to use as a bullet button tool on my Sub2k. Here's what I did.
You will need:
1- Aluminum thumbscrew 8/32 thread
1-8/32 tap and drill
1)Drill and tap the bullet button device.
2)Cut the thumbscrew to exactly the depth of the bullet button device.
3)Leave about 5 turns of the thread and file off the rest. This will help to guide the screw back into the slot you tapped and also keep the threads from getting damaged while pushing it into the bullet button. Plus you don't want to turn that thumbscrew forever to get it off.
4) file edges smooth
VOILA! now you have a bullet button tool that attaches to the device, readily available.
(make a few of those thumbscrews, cause if you are anything like me..I will lose it)
