I need help finding hammer springs for a 16 double?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Tried an Ithica spring and it worked for about 50 shots than started to fail, not enough snap to hit primers hard enough. I haven't had any luck looking for a replacement spring? Maybe a machine shop is my next search.

I attempted to call these people a couple weeks ago. Their contact page indicated that they are not presently taking orders or answering inquiries. Wouldn’t hurt to give Wolff Gunsprings a call.

Shouldn't be a big challenge for an experienced gunsmith to make one. GD

If you measure the wire diameter, total spring lenght, coil space in the stack and how many turns on the ends....that is all that is needed to spin one up. You could even do it yourself with a drill bit, ruler and a bench grinder.
Finding a couple feet of wire is the hard part. I suggest chrome silicon as it is easy to finish.
I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.
