I wonder if this would do anything for a Springer?

Good question Chucky.. A firearm has just one recoil direction where a springer has both forward and reverse recoil.. Maybe someone can chime in on this..:)

The way I understand it has a spring on both sides of a weight.

Wouldn’t it work in both directions?

I guess someone could try it by temporary clamping it to a gun to see what happens.

But that’s a lot of doe just to try it.

I did find one on ebay for cheap
 
So I will see if it changes anything on these Springers.

It wouldnt take much to make one I have talked with other people here about this type of thing a weight with a spring adn have been told that it actually does work but im thinking that a spring on both sides would be even better, I might just have to give it a go sometime.

I did get it but didn’t try it yet

I did take it apart and it does have a heavy spring on one side and light spring on the other side of the weight.

Hmmm.... Yeah, it does sound pretty easy to make. What shape is the center weight??? Large Ball or a Machined cylinder??? Was it lubed inside? Adjustable (for spring tension)???
