They have a couple of generic springs on the JM site. I'd love to replace mine too if it will make it better.  These guns have a lot of torque.

When you had your rifle apart Randy did you polish the spring end's?

Noper, but I probably should have!  All I did really was try and get off any rough spots I found and lubricated it with Moly and Heavy Tar.  TBH I don't know enough about polishing, de-burring, etc I just was wanting to try to improve it just a little.  

I think I succeeded with the 89, but I think I overdid the lubrication on the Titan as it still has a bit of smoke from time to time.  I hope I didn't ruin the seal.

I just called Darrell and he thinks it was a Beeman GS1000 Gold Series factory spring.
