Hi, dandydany,

I am not sure what you mean by "the other smaller mainspring." The only mainspring in the Webley Mk VI is the "V" spring I mentioned above. The part Webley calls the mainspring auxiliary is the lever that operates the hand and the trigger return but it is not a spring. The only way there could be a "smaller spring" is if the mainspring is broken at the "V" so there are two pieces, or if someone tried to install a "booster" spring of some kind.

If you are concerned about axial cylinder play when the hammer is down, don't be. That gun is designed to have a whole lot of cylinder play until the hammer is cocked and the trigger pulled, then things lock up.
