Off Topic Question about Pocket Bushman

Good day.
And why at Pocket Bushman drank in the linings of the screw, which for the lock spring lock?
It seems not to carry any technological load.

That's the screw that holds the spring for the lock in place

The screw is located to the right. I'm interested in the gap in the center of the red circle.

So you can slide the stop pin for the spring forward to compensate for the spring losing tension over time.

I thought that too, but I seem to remember the hole being wider than the slot when I had it apart to snip a coil off the spring. Maybe it's just a crap vent...

How is the action after you cut the spring down and was it just one coil you took off?

 

[WValtakis]

Action is great, easily thumbs open and still locks up tight. I think it was one coil...but not certain.

I bought two of the, gifted one right away and kept the other one for a couple years. Then eded up selling this second one to a friend of mine. Now I miss them!!!

And knowing that the safety action can be loosened a little by clipping one coil is great news.
