Might try something actually, trip to the fishing tackle shop tomorrow..

I used to buy lengths of rubber tubing, really small bore which you’d cut to length for attaching pole fishing floats to the line. Wonder if it’s possible to sleeve the spring.

How about a piece of a tubing placed on the spring and a new hammer for .25? Do these two reduced the ping/twang? Please advise.

Was wondering about dipping the spring in liquid rubber, wonder whether that’d help?

Here’s a good thread that covers a lot of the mods that many of us have incorporated into our Vulcans:

The twang you’re hearing is not going to be reduced with any moderator – it comes from the hammer spring and the factory tubing doesn’t do much to address it. It’ll cost you less than $1 to get the right rubber grommet to fix it…

Has anyone tried flexible heat shrink tubing over the spring??
