    @Bill999 I had another go. Polished the cocking cam alot more aggressively, mirror finish. Then I applied a heap of moly grease on every moving part of the gun. Significantly improved the feel. I still think a slightly lower power mainspring would make these a lot nicer to cock. I was able to play with a couple unfired minis last night and that feel like they have sand in the action compared to mine.
