What does the lbs. refer to? How does more or less pounds help the fire arm?

The amount of pressure thta is but on it the more lbs the better the handling try to get the same settings as this one it handles better than the factory one and the recoil is a lot better now.

generally relates to shooting heavier or lighter loads so the action cycles properly; unless you're doing hand loads, use the recommend spring weight for your caliber.

The Lbs, or pounds is the resistance of the spring. If you read Galloways website they have different weights in spring tension that can effect the recoil of the firearm. I would stay with the factory spring weight to keep recoil and specifications the same so that it does not cause any stove piping or any other issues. Only use the higher tensioned spring if you always shoot 147gr in my opinion.

My understanding is that the draw weight of the bow is determined by the limbs which are attached. You can modify the draw weight by using different limbs. I bought a set of 30lbs and 55lbs limbs so that I can have my young son use the same bow. We swap out the 55lbs limb for the 30lbs'ers when he wants to shoot. It regards to the description, it was probably just a misprint.

If you want line that actually breaks at around 6lb, you'll want the 2lb Fireline (this is thinner than the thinnest monofilament made). 4lb/1lb Fireline can hold 12lb. 14/6 Fireline is said to be 14 pound line, but it actually breaks at 30-40 pounds. I have personally tested 10/4lb Fireline to 24lb. Braided line manufacturers are terrible at disclosing the real properties of their products. If you google Paulus braid tests you can see a table of actual breaking strengths as measured by a 3rd party engineer/fisherman.

I think mine was only set for 45lb when I got it soI had weight adjusted and ended up adjusting draw length as well.

Yes you do. However it should be pretty easy to create something to do that for you. I am thinking a trigger pressure gauge. How many pounds of pull are being used is some other information that is helpful. If you have to use a lot of poundage it is more likely to cause you to veer off slightly. I have a double action only pistol that has a 14 pound pull. I sure wish it were about half that.

The laser itself acts like a barrel weight. The Laserlyte adapter weighs practically nothing. Both both will help keep the barrel down if you have a tendency to aim high. I used barrel weights while shooting rimfire competition with my Browning Match semi auto. As for the recoil, it is off of the slide to the rear not the frame. Added frontal weight may reduce upward recoil, but the only way to reduce recoil is to frontal vent the barrel.

It's lighter, but has a good feel to it weight wise. It's not a blowback. If you want something that will give a kick like a small caliber firearm try the Walther PPK/S (it's steel bbs only,) it has a nice kick. In my opinion, if you want to try practice shooting to replicate a fire arm, you need to practice with a blowback air gun, where the slide recoils back and cock the gun.

I'm pretty sure other people (who don't own the gun) answered some of those questions. It's made of ABS plastic, which is a pretty strong plastic. There's not much metal on it at all, actually. 9/10 of a pound could be correct, although I never weighed mine.

Not quite sure what you mean but if you pull on the scale it will weigh more than when you release it and let whatever your weighing sit there. For the money it worked well for me.

The first number is the rated breaking strength, the second is an indication of the diameter when compared to monofilament. If you want 10lb, buy "10/4". It's ten pound Fireline that has the same diameter (thickness) as 4lb monofilament.

I don't have the precise weight...But it's negligible to say the least. You cannot fill a difference in the weight of the gun with or without them.

From the looks of it. Nothing. I looked over both of them and they look the same. The 103 seems to be 1/2 pound lighter. But either one is a great buy. I still use mine today.

me I used mix 0.2 and .28 but I have to adjust the hop up once I change bbs ... yes the denser it is the hard it hit but I think the fps does not vary much.Lighter bbs used to change direction left or right direction when you fire ... hop up adjustment will not help it ... so if that happens change to heavier bbs and adjust hop up then see the difference yourself , provided your firing while your holding the gun upright... hope I did answer your question and probably some other opinions may come up depends on their experience...thnks

Gram. Not a big deal though, just press the button down & it instantly changes to lbs & ozs.

Victor, Contact Galloway directly, they have excellent service and want to make sure you get the proper parts to meet your need. But per their website: "Direct replacement for the stock 9lb unit from the factory. Will fully cycle full power ammo and help reduce felt recoil and muzzle flip." Based on that, I would presume it would add ~4 lbs of spring loading to what you have now. This is meant to tame the recoil, but may make it a tad more stiff to manually cycle the slide. I replaced the spring in my LC9 (from 16lb to 20lb), and I cannot say its any more difficult to operate the slide.

Ok so I don't have it stock anymore. I put a Leupold Crossbones on it instead of the luminated no brand that it came with. The other was fine I just have older eyes and prefer Leupold. I also installed limbsavers and updated to an Alpine quiver that holds 6 arrows instead of 3. All of that may or may not have added to its weight. Mine weighs in at 11.8 #. I bought the Primos trigger stick 2 and that solved the weight issue. Don't let the weight scare you away, this is an amazingly fast and accurate bow. I carry it with a threepoint AR-15 sling which hangs it in front and to my left side for quick target acquisition and so that I can watch my limbs and cables as I go through the brush. Hope this helped.

It is significantly lighter. The snap caps are basically a plastic housing with a brass end to hold the primer area with the loaded spring. There really is no need for weight in these. They're designed to allow you to dry-fire your pistol with out putting undue stress on the firing pin mechanism...and they do that well.
