Claim:
A diametral retainer for removably fastening elongate game call strikers in combination with a slate type, pan or pot friction turkey call comprising the retainer being made of resilient material and having a C-shaped profile portion, the C-shaped profile portion having a pair of deflective legs; the C-shaped profile having a striker opening to an internal partial diameter, the opening being 50% to 80% of the internal partial diameter; the C-shaped profile having a bottom base portion; the slate type friction call having a round outer peripheral portion; the bottom base portion of the C-shaped profile portion being attached to the call outer peripheral portion pan or pot; a striker having an elongated proximal portion and a partially spherical or flat distal end, having a distal end diameter; the internal partial diameter of the C-shaped profile portion being axially coincident with the distal end diameter of the retained striker; the internal partial diameter of the C-shaped profile portion being slightly smaller than the distal end diameter of the retained striker; the axial center of the internal partial diameter and the retained striker being perpendicular to the axial center of the round pan or pot of the call; abrasive material hand-held externally against the combination C-shaped profile portion and the sounding, distal end of the retained striker for shaping by rotating while pushing the retained striker against the abrasive material.
