The link brent posted is an excellent site and you should book mark it. I have done lots of business with the guy on the site and he is top notch.

Also, the Wolff spring is ok and will get you by (I keep one in my spare parts kit), but go with a 'd' spring.

Just a reminder:
The 'poorboy' trigger job may be something worth doing in and of itself, but the first point won't address the DA pull of a Beretta and the second part is impossible to employ on a Beretta. And even if it were it wouldn't be worth doing.

The DA trigger on the Beretta is like trying to squeeze a bag full of gravel. The biggest offenders are
#1 the mainspring
#2 friction throughout the innards (trigger bar, sear axis, hammer trunnion, hammer strut)
#3 the sear spring
#4 the pin block return spring

A decent 92/96 trigger job will address the SA pull in the course of remedying the DA pull.

from GoSlash27- brent, No biggie. The D spring needs to be ordered directly from Beretta.Your gunsmith should be able to get it for you.
Or you could order it from BerettaUSA. Part # UD99001.

Quote:
From Olhasso website:

"HS-001- 92/96 "D" hammer spring -- This is Beretta Part number C99001 and is a true D spring. The part that BUSA is currently selling as a D spring is indeed part number C90047 which is in fact a standard F model spring".
Any comments?

brent,
If BUSA is stocking incorrect springs, this is the first I'm hearing of it.
You can verify a D spring by length.
Free height of a D spring is 2.4", whereas an F spring is 2.67".
HTHs!

This is just another PITA, which makes three PITA's.

One is grip screw/bushing problem with the newer Taurii PT92, second is replacing the hammer spring on that gun (with its internal lock and other idiosyncracies), and now this... :barf:

brent,
Doesn't really matter where you get your D spring so long as it's a D spring. Go ahead and get one from Olhasso, just measure it before you clip it.
