Custom Trigger & Hammer Springs

Custom Trigger & Hammer Springs for Firearms

When it comes to firearms, every spring plays a critical role in performance, safety, and reliability. Among the most important are trigger springs and hammer springs—two components that directly affect the feel of a trigger pull and the consistent firing of a round. At Anderson Quality Springs, we specialize in designing and manufacturing custom trigger and hammer springs that meet the exacting needs of firearm manufacturers, OEM suppliers, gunsmiths, and shooting enthusiasts.

With decades of experience and a commitment to American craftsmanship, our team delivers precision firearm springs that keep firearms dependable shot after shot.

What Are Trigger Springs?

Trigger springs are the small but powerful components responsible for resetting the trigger after it is pulled. Their performance directly influences the feel, weight, and smoothness of a trigger pull. In competitive shooting, hunting, or defense applications, a reliable trigger spring makes the difference between accuracy and inconsistency.

At Anderson Quality Springs, our custom trigger springs are built to match your performance requirements. Whether you need a lighter pull for a competition firearm, a durable OEM trigger spring for a production line, or a specialized spring for an aftermarket upgrade, we deliver solutions that balance comfort, safety, and reliability. By controlling the wire diameter, coil tension, and materials, we create springs that provide long service life and consistent results.

What Are Hammer Springs?

Hammer springs—sometimes called mainsprings—are responsible for delivering the force needed to drive the hammer forward and strike the firing pin. This energy must be consistent to ensure primers ignite reliably. Too weak, and you risk misfires; too strong, and the trigger pull can feel heavy and harsh.

Our custom hammer springs are engineered with precision to maintain the right balance of strength and consistency. By using high-quality materials and tight manufacturing tolerances, we ensure our springs perform dependably under the stresses of repeated use. From semi-automatic pistols to rifles and shotguns, our OEM hammer springs and aftermarket options are trusted by firearms manufacturers and builders across the U.S.
