SKJS wolf spring kit

After the trigger guard is out it's pretty obvious. The small trigger spring is between the sear and mag release, and the large spring is on the hammer.

The hammer is a pain to remove. Search YouTube for a good method.

If you are still having issues let me know and I'll post pics.
 
DON'T do what that guy did inthe video above... you'll end up losing the spring, or a finger.

Place the hammer in the vice, and then move the trigger assembly to get the hammer out... half the effort and less chance of flying pieces. Assemble the same way in reverse.

I can't find a video of anyone doing it the easy way, hopefully my explanation is enough.

Many people claim the Wolff main spring causes light hits on some ammo, but I've done the spring kit in 2 rifles, using factory, and Czech surplus ammo and I haven't had any issues.
 
Hical.ca is the easiest, not the cheapest.

I ordered from Wolff directly, they are cheap but shipping is brutal, it was over $50 for 3 kits with shipping. It also took 4 weeks to get here.

New Hammer Springs...updated (misfires cured!)

« on: March 30, 2012, 04:48:15 PM »


After many reports of misfires with an all original set-up, and then reports of misfires when using our Firing Pin & Spring, we had Wolff manufacture some special Hammer Springs for us. We had hoped that when the trigger group was properly tuned, the lightest, (Wolff's original 27.5 lb hammer spring) would be adequate to provide consistent ignition. But our testing, and our customers reports are indicating that if you use Berdan primed ammo, (Wolf mostly) you are going to need a stronger Hammer Spring. And we have it. It is rated at 31 lb, (34 lb being factory original strength) and it is doing a great job at providing that very near 100% ignition while allowing a better felt trigger pull.

Until we get them listed on our shopping cart, you can call our toll-free order line to get yours. Available seperately for $8.00, or with a Wolff "Reduced Power Sear Spring" included for $9.00. (+$2.00 shppg if total order is under $11.00)
866-232-4867

You can get more details and read how we incorporate them when installing our Made in USA 922r Compliant Hammers, Sears, and Triggers, on this page of our site: http://murraysguns.com/922r.htm

Many original hammer springs have taken a set over the last 40 to 50 years, and we've seen quite a few tr groups with an unidentified replacement hammer spring that was obviously too weak. So if consistent igniton is a problem for you, try our 31 lb spring, or for an extremely stubborn gun, you can order the 34 lb "original" strength spring.

If you shoot exclusively Boxer primed ammo, the 27.5 lb Hammer Spring is adequate to ignite primers consistently.

I did the mag release spring but i haven't touched the other one yet, i have quit a few things to do before i get to play with this project again. Pictures would be nice if you have a chance to post them.
 
As promised.

Most youtube videos have the main piece in the vice and then pull the hammer out with a screw driver... that's nuts.

With the above method you need half the strength and there is less change of the spring and hammer ending up lost.
