Most of the springs are sold as bike parts now.

You’re not blind. Firearm parts are harder to find on Ali than they used to be, sellers have had to be more creative with their listing names.
Try searching for “21pcs spring”. When you find a store selling that…look at their other items and you’ll find the buffer too.

Tried it, it works, first result is the stuff OP might need.
Lmao the description is “People who need it, don’t need me to give extra explanation what they are for”

Not certain. But i guess sellers get their stores shut down when they get caught selling/shipping prohibited items?

McMaster Carr has loads of springs to buy. You can wind springs yourself with transfer punches as the inside diameter mandrel. Chuck it in a drill and wrap the wire around the punch. Additionally there are spring winder tools for download on grabcad. If you look up chain mail ring making on YouTube you’ll probably see the process I am talking about

How would you make hammer and trigger springs? I have made the simple springs already but as I don’t have a reference or jig I don’t really know how big to make those

Someone shared with me some files for spring winding jigs for ar hammer and trigger springs. Once i finish modeling the jigs to make a diy hammer and trigger im gonna pack up a whole DIY lpk file pack which will contain the spring winding jigs. Youll just nees the proper diameter music wire, which will be detailed in the read me.
How did you go with this is love to get the files

On grabcad, search maadi griffin 50, in the old instruction manual for that gun, he gives instructions on how to make springs like this by hand. There is a user on there who has partially modeled the gun, and he includes the instructions pdf with the model download.

All I did was search “trigger spring” and I got six different ar spring kits.
