    @Jhon are these repops flat or coil main spring ?

    Flat is attched under the barrel in front of the action
    Coil is wound around the hammer pivot

    Just out of interest

    I have 3 coil spring and 5 flat spring 1885s
    My guess is these repops will be coil spring because its an easier spring to make, faster lock time and you don't need the hole in the front of the action from the flat spring

    Winchester developed the coil spring so they could make a takedown model 1885
