IMO if the baffles can't slide up and down on a spring and are tight then they are not doing any good anyway.Bob

The spring is used as a spacer and nothing more. The tighter the baffles to the shroud the more efficient they are. (no gas leakage around the baffles).I don't know where the "moving baffles myth" ever came from?
All - Some baffles came in oversized. They didn't cause any performance issues so they were used. The vendor has since fixed the issue. John
As an original Gen I owner, I think the spring in particular and the baffles as well of the Gen II baffle system are great. I have replaced all my Gen I baffles with these now, including the spring.The Gen I system used an o-ring as the spacer - talk about something that led to great variability in how the shroud system impacts the compression on the barrel . . . I love that spring! It solved so many issues I used to have with changing POI if I ever moved the shroud.
Hill Airguns has them.However make sure your barrel does not need crowning and the pellets are clipping on the way out. Just a thought. It has happened.IMO if the baffles can't slide up and down on a spring and are tight then they are not doing any good anyway.Bob
You won't like it unless the barrel goes all the way to the end of the tube with an oring between the end cap and the barrel blow by fitting. Bob
