I plan to leave spring guide alone, but replace original spring with smaller wire spring. And then add bigger diameter spring with counter wound that would use smaller spring as the guide and rest against spring adjustment cap.

You were right, need to remove guide and modify it, because bigger spring does not fit further down. Thanks for the diagram."jarmstrong"shutik, I am wondering how you plan on removing the spring guide from the hammer
I have a PDF fron Zbroia for putting a vent hole in the space in front of the hammer, to reduce hammer bounce
I don't know how to copy it to this forum, but can email it to you but I have as yet figured out how to message you direct
I think the arm bends out. If you go to the TAG forum a guy shows pics of his and the fix I believe said this is a weak spot"RAMJET66" My Zbroia kozak 22 cal stopped indexing the mag , about 600 shots thru the gun, it just quit working tonite, I can see the little arm move upwards when cocking the gun with the mag out , not sure what happened..

"shutik"Roger,
You can ask Tony to send you new part under warranty.
You need to adjust spring preload to prevent this. Too much force from hammer bounce bends the pin.......thanks Shutik, that sounds like the best plan , if it is under warranty, I will call Tony tommorow
"jarmstrong"there is not an o-ring on the valve stem to keep the air ( when firing the rifle) from pushing the hammer back, the hammer them hits the little pin that actuates the magazine advance.
when the rifle is ready to fired ,the magazine advance linkage is held solid, so when the hammer bounces back and hits the pin hard, something will break.
Zbroia's fix is to drill a hole in the trigger linkage area to vent the excess air from pushing on the hammer
shutik has a copy of this pdf, mayby he will post it or you can message me and I will forward it to you
it shows location and size to drill.......thanks Jarmstrong, I appreciate the help ..
you should be able to just take a coil off the spring and turn the adjuster back in a bit."RAMJET66"I removed the stock yesterday, to straighten the cocking lever, which is only a very temporary fix , it is very thin , I hope the new ones when they get here, are improved .. anyway I decided to turn the H/S tension down, as it is shootin close to 900 w Jsb 18 .34's so I marked it with a sharpie, & backed it out 2 full turns, & the stock would not go back on with the mounting holes, ( with the H/s tensioner backed out , it was hitting the the wood )so I got a dremel & started removing the wood for the back screw hole to line up, but there is not a lot that can be removed, as it is close to the brass thread , so I ended up turning the H/S back in a 1/2 turn to even get the stock back on , so it l;ooks like I am stuck with the H/S setting that still uses way too much air, but I still like the gun , will like it even better if & when I receive the New cocking lever..
