Read on the black years ago where they were changing the ar6 hammer spring and getting over 100 fpe but again the were breaking the hammer, the spring in the ar6 is a heavy spring, you can shim it to a certain extent. David

Springs are pretty darn heavy as it is, better of with a little transfer port enlargement you'll get much better returns that way

I have two AR6s. Of the Two, the one with the best accuracy out to 100 yards, I'll leave alone and keep. The other, I'll either make it a slugger by replacing the barrel and some more tweaking or maybe trade for something different. Waiting for the weather to change cause it's snowing over here in mid April. Craziness!!!!!

What about a nut and bolt through the hole in the hammer? Give it some more weight?

I hadn't realized it but AR6 has absolutely horrendous porting. I checked the port in my pistol with .177 pellet and I would estimate the port to be around 3mm while the design would allow 5.5mm port to be used! Even the magazine has 4.9mm ports. I would strongly suggest opening up the ports and valve tunnel instead of trying to break up things with heavier hammer and hammer spring. Now I wonder what kind of power and shot count that pistol would give if I fixed the airpath and tuned the hammer for increased flow ...
