Attention HW 45 owners!

Not referring to more power necessarily... Wondering on the smoothing up/consistency thing ; are different springs-fitted guides applicable? Never held one let alone been inside... Inquiring minds... Thanx.

The only places I have found to get a spring is from ARH or TBT.
The TBT include other items. See website:

The ARH is only the spring - which I recently bought and have installed.

I also got the piston seal from Custom Air Seals from Australia.
I am currently breaking in the ARH spring - will post chrono after break-in.

Questions answered ; curiosity satisfied - Thanks guys.

I see the op used some nylon washers and shims to tighten up the rattling.
For the lazier folk like myself,  I discovered that applying ARH clear tar to the loose joints of  a rattly Crosman/Benji pumper linkage did wonders. It would probably help quiet down springer linkages as well.
Good luck!

When I was first investigating the rattle and looking for solutions I wasn’t sure if I was going to keep the gun so I didn’t want to put a lot of time or effort into it. An even “lazier” but effective fix ( remember, it’s just a cosmetic noise and not really a mechanical defect) that I initially used took all of one minute to do and was very effective. I cocked the gun fully open and ran a small, thin rubber band around both spring retraction arms at about the middle of their length, pulled it snug and tied it off in a knot cutting off any excess. A drop of superglue on the knot completed the fix and it worked perfectly. Not pretty, but it can’t be seen when the gun is closed, cost nothing, and took all of a minute to do.

Aladdin, I’m too new of a member to be able to post pics yet (
), but as soon as I can I’ll add them to this post. All in, it took a little over an hour to do I used a cordless drill with a rotary rasp to shape it to my liking because the rasp closely matched the stippled texture of the rough part of the grip. And the rough part is the only area that I needed to work on to make it fit. Specifically, it was the area immediately below the trigger guard and especially right at the very bottom that needed work. A dremal tool and a .50 or .625 dia. ball shaped rasp would probably make it easier. When done, I just wiped it down with a couple of coats of Balistrol and it was a perfect match. I handed the finished gun to my wife and asked her to point out the reworked area and she couldn’t.

Glad to hear you are getting it shooting good.  I sold mine and bought this one.  Oh &^^& it's upside down!
