Looking for parts for an Uberti 1851 conversion


Recommended Posts

I'm trying to find a lighter main spring. If such a thing does not exist commercially, I would like to find a replacement spring and try to modify it.

 

Thanks.

The 51s use the same mainspring as a Single Action Army.  Because of some variations between models the spring may have to be fitted.

Wolff also produces a nice reduced power flat spring for the bolt/trigger. It is a good alternative to their wire spring that is often too light for comfort.

A couple of suggestions for ya.  My Go-To Main Spring for setting up "anything" has ben the "Lee's Gunsmithing Gunfighter" spring kit.  Available from Brownells and I think Long Hunter also carries it.  Pietta recently introduced a nice reduce main spring.  Should be available from VTI, EMF or Cimarron.  The Wolff Main Spring is also OK (not the best).
