Hi everyone,

I have seen posts that discuss the use of Wolf springs to address the fact that some 311 shotguns don't open (and stay open) all the way for loading/unloading. I guess that the Wolf springs are a bit more relaxed and therefore allow the action to stay open.

My question is whether replacing these springs will help a 311 action that seems to open TOO easily. When I break open my 311 (series H, probably circa 1985), it almost feels like the action falls open with minimal spring resistance and is stopped when metal hits metal.

All other parts function perfectly, with no stiffness or problems. I'm just wondering if a spring freshening would help for me as well. I really hate that metal-to-metal feeling! 8)

Thanks,

Marley
