[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3097981, member: 15054"] Arminius 357 magnum HW 357 firing pin spring and firing pin. Even when my son went to Germany to the factory which was basically a one man show in an old building they would not sell him a spring or firing pin. Things like this is what i come up against. I agree you can buy stuff easier sometimes. I used a spring and firing pin from a Ruger. I had to turn down the firing pin and "retwist" and shorten the spring. 3 coils only..Crazy Old German stuff I just finished making my own fiberglass front bumper for my 57 chevy.. the old bent and twisted bumper was the mold. I thought it was a good idea but in the end it took many days to massage the glass piece to make it 1/2 way close. But it is on and only weighs 5 lbs compared to the 50 lb stock one which was ruined in a wreck anyway. It is in my nature to tweak and make my own things. I agree you guys be on the safer side and do not do what I do. Although twisting the screw on my savage accutrigger rifle to get it to 2.75 lbs resulted in the sear disengaging if you closed the bolt too fast.. you had to go really slow or up the pressure to 3.5 lbs. With the modded spring I could go 1.25 lbs and never an issue. But I later found out savage had 2 different accutriggers and I bet the spring in the red one would have worked. I also modded a Mossberg to have an adjustable trigger No spring diameter changing just a set screw behind a spring. It was not a couple days later Mossberg came out with the LBA trigger with a set screw in the same place I put mine. I have a disease that makes me tweak things that need it. [/QUOTE]
