Whitey,

     For some reason, replacement main springs have been a bit difficult to find of late, both in flat, and especially coil, varieties.  Which do you need at this time?

     I believe Ballard Rifle LLC was selling the flat springs prior to their last change of ownership, and since they are now making the coil spring action as well they may have both for sale.  I would check there first.

Whitey,

Did you get a price from Ballard? Both flat and coil if you have them. I might be needing them in the near future.

Thanks much.
