Trouble with 20# spring

[Brian Ski]

Don't need any but that sounds like a pretty good price... Any time you can get a gun part for under $10 is a good price let alone a custom one..

AZPaul, how are you gonna know if these springs will fit and function in an SW76? Unless one of the buyers on the list is going to try it in his or yours. If you know your spring rate and a few dimensions I can compare it to the info the spring manufacturer cloned.

Also, I have no idea if there will be another run. The 3 spring minimum order is $28 each!

Azpaul,

Hard to go wrong on a spring at these prices. I'll sell you one of mine at a premium later if you want!

I would like a couple but how do I dertermine what type spring I have? I shoot factory loads. Would you measure it to determine? Just don't want to get the wrong type.

 

[John C]

If you are referring to the Scott Andrey springs, he sells a 20# which is for factory loads and standard RPM, and a 13# for light loads and slower cycling. I don't have one of his 20# springs (mine broke during operation) anymore but I think they are longer than the one I'm selling.

My quote was based on my factory spring which I sent to the spring manufacturer who rated and took the important measurements. I forgot if the 18# spring rate number comes from him or one of my conversations with Scott Andrey.

HTH, John C

PS: tk101 if you are going in on this I need an exact number. I'm not a dealer or anything so I don't want to tie up my money if I buy to many. Of course, Brian Ski could always buy any extras for say $50 each.

 

[John C]

I thought I didn't have another Andrey spring but I found a new one in the safe. The picture below shows that the Andrey 20# spring (top) is almost as long as my factory spring (10,000+ rounds) and has a lot less number of coils. The wire diameter is the same for both.

No springs yet guys. This is a small shop and he takes his time. I'll call after the holiday if I don't hear from the spring shop by then.

Spring Update July 6: our order should (key word: should) be done early next week and delivered here in PA by the end of the week. With the holiday the manufacturer is working with a skeleton staff.

No money form you guys until I accept the springs.
