The spring itself wasn't stronger, but I used more length of spring which ends up making it harder to depress the sear.
I am using the gold spring from the 32 degrees kit - have since I first got the kit. I do not use a regulator yet. I plan on trying the marker with the same spring along with the stronger sear spring. If that doesn't work I will try a weaker spring from the 32 degrees kit. If that doesn't work I will likely come here and hope someone smarter then myself can give me another clue.

The new spring should work. It was most likely that the seer wasnt returning fast enough to catch the striker like everyone else was saying. If that doesnt fix the problem then I really dont know what it could be.

Since he's using the strongest 32 degrees spring I bet it's because the striker isn't getting enough air to recock. Just out of curiousity, why are you using the strong spring? It would probably be better to use the lightest mainspring (And whichever valve spring helps) that let's you reach 300fps in order to cut down on gun kick.

I am pretty sure I was given that advice either from someone at this board, or possibly another one. I could be wrong on that though, I may have just thought
gold was pretty or something. Maybe because I thought it would use less air? I got the kit right after I started playing (it was one sale very cheap so I figured I might as well) so I really didn't know what to do with them. It always worked fine until recently, seems to be getting progressively worse.

It is a pretty nice spring kit. I picked one up to help in tweaking a lowered pressure setup. Running with the strongest spring didn't make much of a difference in the low pressure velocity but gave me a lot more kick. The slightly quieter gun (running lower pressure with stronger spring) just wasn't worth the extra innaccuracy at least in my experience. I think you get dimishing returns as you go with a stronger mainspring.

He said it only clicks once tho, so that isnt the problem.

Good news. I fired the marker (not in play since everyone cancelled again) about 30 times without a double fire at all.

I changed the sear spring and changed the main spring back to the middle stength one from the 32 degrees set.

I am going to experiment with the setup when time allows and will put whatever I find out here.

Thanks for the help everyone!!!
