.25 Delrin hammer spring guide to reduce spring noise
Finally got a chance to tune a .25.
1st thing I notic was a loose spring near the hammer (no spring guide)– a lot of slop and you can hear it too. see photo, you can see the spring guide on the HSTA so I made a guide to fill that area.
Photo of Delrin guide when cock —-> not like the .22 this one is a little smaller OD then the Hammer so it dosnt hit the action as a free floating hammer.
Photo of polish hammer with Delrin guide with HSTA guide so you can see the clearance.
Also added de pinger in the AT
now this .25 sound solid with no spring noise, she shooting kings at 935fps and sound as quiet as the .25 cricket at the same FPE.

This isn’t what you sent me is it? You didn’t know I had a .25! Now I’m going to have to skip my cancer medication again to get the right parts! Dammit…I’ll never make it to 73 this way!

PS: Ernest…that first picture doesn’t seem to show a loose spring. It looks to me like someone is bending it with a pair of needle nose pliers!!! Small wonder it isn’t working right!
