Nelson consistency tuning?

{Drake} · 07-04-2008, 05:27 PM

Could I get advice on a few good spring kits to use on my nelsons, I run the one as open class and the other I would like to tune for 12 grams.

I have heard good things about the madman spring kits but I am not sure on the availability of those in Africa. Is there any other spring kits I could get springs from, like cocker spring kits perhaps?

How would I tune a nelson pump for 12 grams anyway? Softer valve spring?

The new cocker springs kits are suppose to work with nelsons. If you go to wevopaintball.com, they have a cocker multi piece spring kit for both main and valve springs that is suppose to work with nelsons. They also have jsut a standard spring kit for nelsons.

ironically much like the Cocker/Sniper nomenclature Cocker springs Started out as Nelson springs, and the hammers kits that Cockers needed back in the day were called Nelson Hammer kits, made specifically so Cocker owners could take advantage of Nelson spring kits

Nelson valve springs arent the same as cocker valve springs if I recall. It is true that "cocker" spring kits started out as "nelson springs in a cocker"

But the current cocker springs are deviated, though you can make them work.
