Ruger /wilson springs

[TWBryan]

In my stuff I found some Wilson combat springs for a Ruger Super Redhawk. The question is, will these springs work in a GP-100? I've read somewhere that they would ,but I'm hoping I can get a response from someone who knows.

Thanks

the main springs are the same but,triggersprings are heavier for the super.the gp kit comes with8#,10# trigger springs & the super kit comes with10#,12# trigger springs.
i take a drill bit & lapping compound & smooth the hole where the trigger spring works ,itll take a lot of gritty feel out!!!!

I have a question re: GP100 action job
Is it too much different from doing a Blackhawk? Basically a spring kit and some judicious polishing is about it?
I've gotten hold of a 3' GP100 that I'm gonna tinker with.
So advice is appreciated!

Gp100man -Thanks for the reply, I put in the 10 lb trigger spring and the 9 lb hammer spring. Unbelievably smooth now. Will have to check for proper ignition at the range prior to testing.

Thanks

Sparky; TWBrian: Yes the same springs, mechanics.
Is it like the Single Actions mechanics; NO
Will they respond to polishing Will they respond to Springs
Clean, polishing will improve dramatically the GP's
Is this redundant?

the test on the main spring is to shoot very slow&deliberate DA mode if you get 100% ignition then id say your ok.
mine like the 10# main spring.

down load the manual it has the disassembly info ,then when you get the trigger group out put it in a big zip lock bag to work on it ,to capture flying plungers & springs!!!
dont shine to hard on the DA pawl thats a sensative part!!!!!
