Hey guys,

I was tearing mine down to replace the spring, the piston seal and add some buttons to the piston. While I had the trigger out I was adjusting the 2nd stage trigger, I removed the screw to add a little bling to the trigger group :). When I noticed the spring the rides above the screw, it was one of the stiffest springs I came across in this gun. I could not compress the spring by hand. I was looking thru my spring collection and found a smaller spring that just mite work.

The old spring dimensions
.297 Length
.173 OD
.100 ID
Coil width .036

With this new spring in my hand, I would give it a try. After installing the new one behind the screw for the pull weight, I was adjusting it to my liking. Got it down to a nice 1 lb pull on the second stage. Before when I adjusting the trigger  the old spring would not let the gun come out of the 2nd stage, so when I released the trigger to get another site picture. The gun would stay in the 2nd stage, the when I pulled the trigger it would go off very easily. Now when I pull on the trigger I can tell when the first and second stage is working, and when I release the trigger it goes back to the first stage.

The New spring dimensions
.297 Length
.173 OD
.100 ID
Coil width .0175

Ya, I noticed the same thing before CharlieDaTuna tuned my B-26-2. Now it is very predictable and more fun to shoot..
