    If he has the spring on Wednesday but hasn't fitted it, I'd be tempted to take it home and fit the new spring myself. After all, you now know how to work on it and can take a little extra time finishing / polishing spring ends etc.

    Got he rifle back today after having an accident and been laid up a few days. Well owe it shoot .... Like a sack of sh#@ twangy as hel l and hard to cock this is with what's supposed to be a hw spring I've stripped it took loads of grease out the spring guide falls out and the preload is ridiculous the spring is flush with the end of the cylinder and I havn t got the strength in my shoulder to get the tw@t back in .... Not a happy bunny at all its on the 2nd replacement mainspring and is worse than when it started out. I've well and truly given up. It's thrown in the cupboard to forget about I'll Buy something else after xmas

    I will do bud proper spat my dummy out today with it if I didn't put it away is of ended up breaking it or injuring myself I was a bit wound up when I got the rifle and was told it's spot on its a right pig to cock said there was a couple preload washers in so went to take them out and looks like a kid has put it together with half a gallon of grease could hear the cocking show going along the spring when it was cocked now can't get the fcucker back together with the preload in by no means a "tuner" but have fettled a few and this is by far the worst after he's supposed to of sorted it
