Delgado900 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Hi guys, Starting a new thread on this. I was impatient waiting for Patrol Base to have the Specna Arms H-05 in stock so I ordered it from Gunfire who were super quick. I knew I would have to change the spring to lower the FPS (spare spring in the box stating 310fps). So I changed over the spring and it felt a bit weak, chrono’d it and it was running at 285fps hop was fully on so expected it to be lower than 310fps. So I read somewhere that the lowering spring was a m90 spring. So I thought I’d pop out today and buy a m100 spring to increase the FPS to hopefully around 330-350fps. Changed over the spring now I’m at 405fps ..... help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ak2m4 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 What spring brand was it? Sounds to me like you may have a M120 there but each brand is different in how they rate springs. What FPS were you getting before you changed to the included M90? Worth checking the hop chamber and bucking for any misalignment / damage.

Delgado900 Posted May 9, 2019 Author Share Posted May 9, 2019 It’s firing straight as anything. Before lowering to the m90 spring it was firing at 430fps so the spring i went out any purchased today was an SHS m100 but the spring tension between the two were polar worlds apart so I’m thinking that the spring may have been packaged incorrectly. Any way to determine a spring from the coil rotation pattern? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ak2m4 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 I've noticed this with SHS springs now and then. M110 tend to go M100 packaging and in some M110 you find M120's. M110 and M120 look very similar, Post a pic of the spring and I'll see if I can eye-ball it for you. I've spent so long looking and testing these springs lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ak2m4 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Definitely a M110 or a M120 buddy. If you want I can send you a ZCI M100 out today which are dead on from my tests. Should get to you tomorrow 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters Lozart Posted September 28, 2020 Supporters Share Posted September 28, 2020 Two things here - 1) the "M90" spring that comes with the Specna is made of Dairylea, 2) Pete @ak2m4 is a bloody star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
