Ron, I was asked if I could look at those drawings and give an opinion on making the insert. I was told it might be in the Aug 2000 issue of 'The Gun Report". I can't find this magazine or article on eBay or on Jan's site.

Would you have a copy of the drawings? (Or the entire article?)

Dave, I did read your comment on the adjustable coil mainspring. I even downloaded the 12-page patent application. It seems pretty simple except for the means of adjustment. There's not a lot of room for a spanner. A slotted nut would require a hole. The nut could be notched or drilled with a series of holes to be turned with a teeny rod.
