Wanted Weihrauch HW97k .177 Spring

[milegajo 595]

Anyone got a surplus spring perhaps left over from a tune kit? I ask because after stripping down my 97 I noticed if have one of the cut and poorly finished springs that is now running at 12.4ft/lbs without washers. I don't have the thick sticky crap that was on the piston to detune it back to 11.6ft/lbs and I won't/can't legally use it as it is...

 

Happy to pay postage. Not sure what I can trade in return, have some surplus high scope mounts, 11mm dovetail and 20mm weaver... a Hawke 4x32 scope inc mounts/ a Nikko Sterling scope 4x32 inc mounts.

Why not grind a coil off the spring and fine tune it that way? If it goes a tad low on power, a small piston weight can be added to bring it back up gradually - usually makes recoil softer too, in my experience. Been a while since I tuned a springer!

I have a hacksaw and a file... I thought of that myself. I doubt i could make one look more untidy than it already does! I'd prefer a properly finished spring to the one I have. Hopefully one that I can adjust up not down. A long shot perhaps...
