Made the click out of 4140 which engages the ratchet.
I used my CNC mill to make this part. This simple part tool much longer than expected. I first drilled and tapped the fixture plate made from Aluminum. Not moving the mill table, I superglued the stock down and drilled the clearance hole, place a screw to help hold it. I took shallow passes, but it moved on the last pass and had to start again.
On the second attempt, success! It didn't move.
Completed part next to ratchet, barrel, front cap.
