What they've done is built a locking mechanism into the mainspring housing of the 1911 design. |
In addition to the hammer assembly, the kit includes the mainspring, the ambidextrous safety assembly, and an extra power plunger spring. |
In Murphy's account, the mainspring of Douglas's public career was his aching, but never fulfilled, ambition for the presidency. |
A smooth border edges the mainspring housing and front of the grip strap to reduce drag and snag when carried concealed under. |
I would be very careful in replacing a mainspring with one that is less than half as strong as the former. |
Maybe there's no firing pin, maybe it's broken, or perhaps the mainspring is weak. |
