java53 30 Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Hi my spring has broke on my bsa supersport would it be all right to put a ox accelerator in my mate has a one spare many thanks Quote Link to post
Phantom 631 Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 A couple of things to take into account. Will it fit dimension wise? Will it take it over the limit? Finally if you put a spring in that is too strong for your rifle, it will almost certainly damage the gun. An example that springs to mind immediately is the shattered trigger/sear that I got for fitting an incorrect spring What number is the spare spring? (different numbers are suitable for different guns). Tony Quote Link to post
millsy44 72 Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Tonys got it spot on, all the above needs to be checked before just throwing the first available spring in mate Quote Link to post
matt_hooks 188 Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Avoid Ox springs like the plague! They are noisy and not very well made, so they are inconsistent and inaccurate. Also there's the chance that it will take your rifle over the limit, not a good situation! Quote Link to post
