Roughly speaking, a harder spring that has 2\/3 the length of a stock spring as well as 2\/3 the amount of active coils should make it. Another way of doing this is to get a M110 or M120 spring and cut away three to four rounds of the tighter coils.<\/p>\n<p>The thicker the spring wire, the stiffer the spring will be.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/P1000048.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-904\" alt=\"P1000048\" src=\"http:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/P1000048-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/P1000048-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/P1000048.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A softer spring is usually less responsive in terms of its \u201cpushing back\u201d movement.
