Gunsmithing / Re: Measuring mainspring strength
« Last post by Navy Six on March 25, 2024, 01:31:18 PM »
Well, just to satisfy myself that I wouldn't be wasting my time, this morning I did a brief preliminary test. A pair of Uberti mainsprings that came out of Cattleman(circa 1998 & 2000 and are definitely heavier than current production) were installed in my Uberti 51 Navy squarebacks. These two cap suck at the rate of 2/3 every 30 rounds or so despite everything done to them. After 60 total rounds I didn't have a single issue. No changes from usual other than the mainsprings. So I will hunt down more mainsprings of a similar weight as I intend to continue testing these two guns as well as a pair of 61 Navies and 60 Armies. I want to know about what weight mainspring is required to make these things work.

I pick up a cold again. Taking today off to get some rest
Slim, I hope you feel better.
There's a virus going around called RSV  https://www.cdc.gov/rsv/index.html  It's prevalent in children and older people over 60. I'm just about over it. My wife has been hacking away for over three weeks now. I understand that you can get a shot for this this.

On another note, I was diagnosed with Sleep Apnea. Just spent my 8th night hooked up to a CPAP machine.

I have a Spencer, S#, 37952. Markings on the top indicate it is a Spencer. Any additional insight is appreciated.

Thanks to all that came, I know a lot of you drove a long ways. The hotel is under renovation and just put
in a new heating system that is not done to all the rooms. I was really pleased with the staff, Tabatha, a worker joined
NCOWS and is going to shoot our inaugural shoot in May.

Many people assumed that because Custer's troops were cavalry, they were using Spencer carbines. Not the case, however, as these rifles show.

 Morning y'all.
Coffee and tea are hot.

I'm still alive, too. Still giving the post office 60 or so hours a week. But not for long. 68 days.
Good for you.

I pick up a cold again. Taking today off to get some rest.

'Tis 34 and overcast. Sn*w is melting. "Not as cool. Cloudy. A chance of light rain in the morning  then rain in the afternoon. Highs in the upper 40s. East wind 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 90 percent."
