hi there, YES I would say so. a lot of people have heard about its workings but very few have had the spanners out. "LIGHTS CAMERA ACTION". atb gc93...![]()
I was thinking of doing a vid when I strip my latest 93 if there is any interest ?

well done, whish I never sold mine now
thanks for sharing , atb gc93.....
nah, not really complicated at all, just have to be methodical. It is normally a fraction more complex as the spring compressor would have to be used a second time to compress the second spring, via an insert (lump of delrin rod) into the main tube, which will be much clearer when I reassemble. However as the front spring was toast, that wasn't needed on this strip...

Really enjoyed the educational video.
My Park .177 is working flawlessly, so not touching it. ONe day it may need to be,
I really would be interested in what spring replacements are required. I would even buy if some needed to be made up a set for the spares future box. Annoyingly someone did give me a lead to where some might be found, but I lost it. No funds at the time too. Anyhow, I really like my Park so want to keep and shoot for as long as I can.
I'll be following the progress closely.
Many thanks for the strip... the rifle...
hi , if there was a little interest I possibly could get some made up, either a pair to copy or measurements . does anyone know if they are wound opposite to each other or both wound in the same direction ? thanks gc93.
Hi,
I had a pair of spare springs a few years ago made by a chap who used to be on here, I do not recall his full name but I think it was Phil.
These are the measurements of a standard pair as found on my Park RH93 Cal 0.22.
Dimensions and weight of the standard springs:
Short Spring, (pushing front piston rearwards).
3.9mm wire x 19 coils Weight: 108 grammes.
Length: 14.8cm Outside Dia:23.3mm. Internal Dia.:15.5mm.
Long Spring,
3.3mm wire x 29 coils. Weight:94 grammes.
Length: 16.3cm Outside Dia.:18.3mm. Internal Dia.:11.6mm.
