No guesswork while the biceps are struggling!
There is no struggling to assemble an Original 6, you can assemble the spring using a simple clamp and the spring is held in a compressed position by the gears. The end cap can be screwed on easily by hand under no pressure. The picture below shows the end of the back piston with the spring pressure behind it and the cap removed. It is one of the easiest spring piston air pistols to assemble.
