HSc missing trigger spring.
« on: August 28, 2014, 10:06:05 AM »
Hello,

Since im new to this forum i was hoping that some of you can help me. The problem is as follows. A while back my father took my Mauser HSc (Serial no. 883036) to a shooting range. After some shooting the trigger jammed. For a reason he did not know.

With the help of some charts and faded illustrations. I managed to identify that the trigger spring was missing. Dont know how but maybe it snaped and fell out, who knows.

I ordered a new spring from a german weapons dealer/smith he previously managed to send me a new magazine spring and a trigger spring for my Mauser C96. So i figured he knows something or two.

Well i got it, and it seems it is not the original, and even if it isint,  it seems too far off to be correct.

As i hope someone can help me to find the correct info (picture) to figure it out.




Best wishes from Estonia,


C.

Here are two pictures of the Trigger Spring installed in an HSc.  Hope they help:

Thanks, but i think i misspelled. Im attatching a photo where is the fabricated so called spring and the pistol.

I found a chart where was a illustration of the pistol and the numbers of different parts. And the bow shaped piece was called a trigger spring.

Im sorry if my knowlege is poor on that one.


PS! I added a picture link. Because for some reason it does not allow to attach photos.

I think you are showing a Trigger Bar Spring that goes to a 1970's version of the HSc.  It is not used on the wartime pistols.  The only spring for the Trigger mechanism is the one I have shown above that wraps around the Trigger Hinge Pin.

I must give you credit for a very nice photo!  Mine don't turn out that great.

Good luck with the gunsmithing.

Thanks warbird! Indeed the spring in question is broken. Thanks to your photos i could identify it. And yes i did some research and the trigger bar spring is only on the 1970 pistols.


Thank you again.
