LPR Adapter/spring tension

[bakerboy4679]

What should my spring tension be on my LPR adapter? what could I get away with, with just about any pressure? I was thinking # 2.:

And I had to grind the adapter so I could get a Cresent wrench on it and turn it..

3 looks pretty good to me, or inbetween 2 & 3. I think you want the adjusting nut closest to the valve about .75" away from the rear of the adapter. I usually just put the gun together and then get a feel for how much spring is on the valve pin by pushing the bolt forward (degassed of course). You want some resistance, but not too much.

Yep, that is a Gen1 ASP adapter (I think)
He is now on Gen5.
