A mainspring that would fit a Crosman Quest?? Tim.
-
Tim my old one was bent and I just through it away but the new one I bought from crosman was under $ 6 I believe . Their parts are cheap. I added a shim and you can see the numbers on my post about it. Good luck Marvin

will a spring from a cfx work?
-
I've got one. Something wrong with yours original one? I believe the E1500 from JM will fit as well.

Hey Jason, Tim here! Just got your PM & sent you one back. Yup the spring is broken. It was a gun my friend had for over a year with many thousands of shots fired. He has replaced it. I have the old one & am turning it into a "Super Carbine" LOL! Cutting down the brl. & stock as short as I dare! Gonna make LOP as short as scope eye relief will allow. Look for pics soon! Thanks Buddy,, Tim.

Tim:
A new piston spring is available directly from Crosman, Part #C1K77-010, fits all C1K77 series (Quest1000, Storm, Sierra Pro, Remmington Summit models) priced at $5.70 each and only a 585-657-6161 phone call away. The synthetic piston seal Part# C1K77-002 priced at $3.60 ea. and breech seal Part#C1K77-008 priced at $1.00 are also available. Their flat shipping rate of $4.00, regardless of order size is, VERY reasonable. (They can resume sending me my quarterly commission check any time now - hehe)
Parts Manuals and Parts lists with exploded view diagrams in pdf form can also be found for much of what they sell, if you follow the appropriate links at Crosman.com
Perhaps this info will help.

Those prices are VERY reasonable. I broke the spring in my Beeman SS-1000 and Beeman didn't have any so I emailed Umarex for a price on a spring and a seal to fit the Hammerli Titan (same as SS-1000, AR-1000, and others). They want around $18.50 for the spring, $9.50 for the seal, and $9.00 shipping, all for STOCK parts! Made me mad, so I haven't ordered. I've got it all apart, honed and ready to go back together. Maccari doesn't make one to fit it as far as I can tell, so I'm out of business for the time being 'til I get un-mad.
It's too bad cause I had grown to really like this gun for it's power and accuracy but those prices seem unreasonable. I may have to look into a crosman or something else.
