Default springy thingy!

Hi to all, Most Luger folks don't ever even think about this little rascal, but it is a pretty important part of a Lugers fire control function. It's only job is to reconnect the disconnector!
Now, I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who has pushed on a rusted or corroded plunger pin and spent the next few hours trying to get it back to where it was before you started? The main enemy of the spring is rust. Not only does it cause a dry spring to drag, but it eventually it breaks in two? Should you be able to get it all apart, you're going to need a new spring! Good news is, they are available! Bad news is, they are all in China... I happened to order a few before we were in a pissing match with them, and have them on hand should anyone get to that point or need..
For you, "do it your selfers", the springs dimensions are as follows:
wire dia. 0.2 X OD 2.5 X Length 20.0 or 25.0...Best to all, til....lat'r....GT...
