Holds mainspring in alignment, prevents spring kink and binding for consistent hammer drop and improved ignition. Round strut helps provide a confidence-inspiring, smoother feel when cocking.

Pre-assembled with a 17 pound Wolff hammer spring and ready to drop in.

Instant improvement
Excellent product, instant improvement over factory springs and struts. Work great in Blackhawk including small frame “flattop” models as well as both original and “New” Vaqueros (without internal lock).

Easiest upgrade for New Model Blackhawks
Being a captured spring, removal of the old and installation of the new is easy. A tiny drop of oil on the round end where it meets the hammer helps. Still plenty of spring power compared to the stock 24 pound spring to reliably ignite the hard primers of .45ACP GI rounds. This will also take off about 2 pounds of trigger pull due to reduced pressure on the sear surfaces.
