The Beeman RS2 has the unusually design of allowing the compressed spring to rest on the first trigger [pin]. Because of this, it requires the insertion of a 4 four pronged tool to circumvent the trigger before the back of the Spring can be reached, compressed and removed. The PVC tool I made works ok to reach, circumvent the trigger, and compress the spring. This will relieve the pressure on the first trigger pin and allow for the remove of the trigger and all internal parts.. BUT in no way can THE PVC TOOL BE USED TO REINSERT [COMPRESS] THE SPRING.. THIS BECAME OBVIOUS TO ME REAL FAST !! LOL] OK The spring is now outside the receiver using the PVC tool. . or better still just the tool i 'am about to describe now. First let me describe what must occur.. The spring is very strong and in addition, must be compressed about 4 inches back into the receiver and be far enough in to be past the first trigger pin. While the spring is being held there, the trigger must then be re inserted in between the space of the upper and lower bolts now holding the compressed spring . SOoo.after a lube tune the spring was ready to be re-inserted. I used 4" long, thin bolts to rest on the back of the the spring. the other end for the c-clamp screw. I drilled 4 holes in a metal bracket i had lying around . Secured the bolts with nuts. Folded the bracket down to cover the screw heads. This prevents [ keep] the bolts from popping out . I made a wooded backing plate and found a brass pipe nut which I screwed into the wooden backplate to prevent movement of the c clamp head as the spring was being compression. the metal bracket with the four bolts rests on this wooded backplate. [see NEW UPDATED pic ] .The bolts are positioned on the spring guide so that one bolt is positioned on the upper right.. , one on the upper left.., One on the lower right.., and one on the lower left. The spring is then compressed PAST the first trigger pin and held there. The trigger is inserted in between the upper and lower bolts now holding the spring .The pins are inserted. The spring can now be decompressed to rest on the trigger pin .It's normal position.The rest of the gun is now re-assembled. Hope this helps someone
Ps After three tins .. of wadcutters .. she is grouping .. like a groupie. Dime size holes yes only 10 yds .. but .. finally ..consistency. lol ..had me worried at first.. new to springers.. ya know.... But think i'll keep her with me in bed.
