Looks broken to me, the two pieces that would be the ends are closed/flat to mate against their respective surfaces squarely, I'd try closing the mainspring ends to be flat, and putting a spacer at each end, with larger spacer(s) at the piston end.

Interesting that it still fired well though 😃

So I have pretty much finished the stock for my 95 and so I thought I would pull it apart today to have a look as I am going to drop it in power from about 890 to 750 fps. It will be my dedicated "sparrow gun" for the supermarkets.
When I took the spring out, it came out in 4 pieces!!Shocked The small bits had been wound into the ends so it had the effect of giving it a short powerful stroke..... i'm guessing. Either that or it plain broke and has been firing ok anyway. Shot cycle had always been nice and smooth, no rattles, just a nice thuick! (not sure how you spell that).Confused
Put it back together with just the main spring and it fired nicely at around 615 fps. I will either put some spacers on the top hat, wind one section of spring back in or buy a new spring to bring it up to the 750 fps mark.

Has anyone heard of the "inter-twined spring technique before"?

Long time no updates here , sick kids taking priority.
Fitted one of nungas adjustable butt hooks to it now , and have to say they're very race gun!
A lot of adjustment, easy to fit and set up, one size Allen key for everything, and way below the cost of anything like it on the market. Top work nunga, , it's made this stock fit me so much better - now I just need to sort this damn shoulder out :)

Here it is fitted, gotta have gun porn :)

Everyone is different if they're handmade. I see a lot of differences between them just at a glance.
The one I'm doing is longer, with a mix of FWB and AA in the rear, plus the pistol grip angle and thumb slot, just to name a few.
It's good to see people having a go rather than forking out the ridiculous dollars to import a bit of wood

I know what you mean, there are some similarities around the trigger.
 I am making it for my HW95 but was copying my 97 stock and thinking of adding some 98 into it. A Weirauch hybrid.
That's gonna look great with the grain. It will be an individual piece. 
Note i'm talking about bretts stock looking great, not blowing my own horn. I just re read it.

Gee Brett, you'd think i'm trying to copy you but I am making a new stock for my 95 now.  I have a piece of Eucalyptus that I am using. I'm basically copying my 97 stock but will put an adjustable cheek piece like the 98.  I plan to use it for work now that my 97 is all FT'd out. The wood is hard as hell, nice and dense too which hopefully has a benefit.
