apdwler Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 I think I was given a old silver spring 3. It's bigger than my old 2 anyway. Tougher than a black spring 3, but easier than a silver spring Elite. Funny though, the guy said he got it from a guy that make them?

Bill Piche Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 An original Silver Crush 3 is very hard. The handles are thicker and the whole gripper is much heavier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Black Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 Could you describe it better? Does it have a small hole in the handles, ring on the handle, is it stamped #3, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat 74 Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 If you ever want to get rid of it, I'll buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apdwler Posted April 17, 2003 Author Share Posted April 17, 2003 (edited) I'm thinking it might be authentic. It looks exactly like my old silver spring 2, except a bigger spring. The handles are heavy, and have holes all the way through. Apparently to hold the spring. There is less kurding (sp?). I'm not sure about the size of the handles, can't find the calaper. There isn't a huge difference. It's heavy, like the old 2. It's very hard. I can just move it around an inch (my lack of training doesn't help). The guy I got it from was impressed I could even move it. The only thing that caught me as weird, is it doesn't look old. It's as shinny as can be. This is after the guy pulled it out of a tool kit, in the back of his truck!! The is no stamp on the handles, no ring. There MIGHT be a small C on the bottom of one of the handle, but it's not very visable. It could be a full circle, a result of manufacture. I really can't be sure.

apdwler Posted April 17, 2003 Author Share Posted April 17, 2003 No, I do have 2 lemleys (sp) however. I think it is the real thing. I'm going to put a pic on my site, maybe latter today. If the computer stops crashing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
