It will be fine! There is a thread on here which gives the item number of the weaker spring. PM me if you can not find it (I bought one so have the number somewhere).

Thanks I found it but what length do you need, would like to get the replacement one before taking the pistol apart.

Page 16, post #227 of this thread refers:

Spare hammer spring, bay item 231352543722, 0.9 mm x 70 mm.

I ordered the one in stainless.

Unlike the stock spring, the above replacement has pointed/bare ends. I flattened the ends down carefully (using pliers) to prevent the ends gouging into the hammer and end cap. There are probably better ways of doing it.

Thanks off to order one now

Quick question on these pistols please.

Has anyone had any issues with the CO2 cartridges they use. I've only just got my CP1 and at the moment I only have Crosman cartridges available and they don't seem to work in this pistol. I think the end cap is too hard so when it initially pierces I don't think it's tightening down on to the seal well enough and I'm just getting hissing from CO2 leaking into the action. It's either that or the valve itself is leaking...

Be interested to know people's thoughts.

Thanks in advance

I think it may have been this pistol that I had a slight snag with on first use. The bulb (not recall which brand) did not piece fully, resulting in a weaker shot than normal, but also lots more shots than normal. This can occur on any model if the bulb is only partially pierced (confirmed visually). Subsequent use, made sure it was screwed down well, no problem thereafter.
