Good evening all. Just got this, it was cheap and ideal for a project. The spring, not an original one was broken and had about 1/2" preload. But even at that it was quite hard to cock, any harder and I think it would feel stressed and harsh.
I obtained a new spring from Mr Knibbs with whom I have no problem at all. It has over 2" of preload, I could get it in, I think, but would never be able to cock it.
What please do you think would be a reasonable preload - 1" ??
Any help or suggestions gratefully received.
Thank you.
Cheers.
Geoff.
