Air rifle spring

[1888andybhoy 7]

Hi all,

I know this isnt actually legal but its getting that way nothing is. How do i go about putting pennys behind my spring on my .177 or is there a better way than pennys.

Many thanks.

That's not illegal unless the rifle has an output higher than 12ft/lbs... Depends what rifle you have if it's a BSA I can give you an easy guide.

No its not a Bsa its a cometa but when i take off the stock theres what looks to be a pin going through the back of where the spring is.

Hi, mate.

 

Don't waste your time.

 

You've still got the same spring, with the same amount of stored energy, shoving the same piston up the same cylinder to compress the same amount of air to push the same pellet out of the same barrel. It doesn't work.

 

All your likely to do is make your gun so as the trigger won't engage 'cos the spring goes solid before the piston's gone back far enough....

 

Cheers.

You don't want to mess around trying to give your rifle more power. If you want more power get an FAC and then you can get an FAC air rifle or whatever.
