Not too sure...I have to get my hands on some thin spring steel, and make some parts to get it functioning properly. Needs some wood work too.

I was just being a 'funny guy' when I said I wasn't sure what section to post in, lol...it's actually a rifle.

Little spring steel and some wood work.... sounds pretty optimistic. What flavor of rifle is it?

I have to get my hands on some thin spring steel
'Banding' (strapping) steel makes excellent flat spring material.
I have Used it many times to make flat springs.
