changing springs in the Redhawk

[5of7]

I have a set of springs for the Redhawk and I forgot which one is which.

One is bronze colored, one is green and the other one is blue.

Do any of you know what the pound rating is on these springs according to their colors?

I just don't want to change them and not know what I am replacing the stock springs with.....thanks for any advice on this. 8)

If you don't get an easier answer from anybody else, tell me the overall length, number of coils and wire diameter of each spring and I'll tell you which is which.

Generally, the smaller wire diameter goes with the lighter spring.

Don't have any idea who made that kit I take it?
I have a Bullseye Redhawk kit from the mid 1980s but the color codes don't agree with yours.
Mine are,
Red=Lightest
Yellow=Medium
Blue=Heaviest
No poundage ratings listed, only light, med, heavy.
My stock takeout spring from that vintage gun is bronze
Don't sound like that's any help, sorry.

OK I can measure the wire diameter and go by that....thanks. 8)
