Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Yes sir, just purchased 3 of them. I'm not a fan of making springs, I can do it and I've had pretty good luck with make a spring a spring that holds compression but it's a pain. I'd rather be working on stocks than filing away on metal! Thank you for your help, Jerry

Jerry,
I have used the Dixie gun works springs and the ones that Galazan sells. I believe they are the same spring or really close. There is a lot of hand filing that needs to be done to get them down to the proper dimensions. Be very careful that you don't do too short on the shorter of the two ends. If you do the top lever will go over a little too far and stay over. It is a good idea to purchase a few of them incase of overfiling. It is also nice to have a few laying around. I am sure you will need another one soon.
Good luck
