Default Springs

Is there a source for firing pin return springs for a lifter? If not original style. can an off the shelf substitute be used? I need 2 for a 10 ga I bought.

The Home Depot. They’re pretty generic. They’re not especially strong.

There is not anything too special about them. Anything can be substituted in. They are about 1/4” diameter and maybe 3/8” long. And relatively light.

Thanks everubody. I'll see what I can come up with. I know the ones in my other lifter were reduced on each end, but I wondered when I took them out if that was necessary. It looks like both ends set on a flat.
