The top lever springs came in three sizes. One for the hammer guns and two for the hammerless plus they changed from leaf to coil spring making four. I order both the hammer and hammerless springs from Dixie Gun Works. They are so cheap, about $5.00 ea, I order several. Recently I replaced a toplever spring for a friend and after I had groud down the hammerless spring and was fitting it to te Parker it turned out to be a fraction to short as Ed indicated. I took the hammergun top lever spring (it is much longer) and fitted it. Like Ed, I use a Dremel Tool to copy the broken spring so don't discard the old one.
