The loop has three basic sides:
- top
- live/active
-dead/ in-active
The live side of the loop continues down to the spring body, thus is the side that is the continuation of the spring arm, therefore is the spring arm, this side is live/active.
The dead side of the loop is the side that the spring wire comes to an end. This side simply closes the loop. Dead side - side that wire comes to end. Does not impact the spring energies.
There is a picture of this on our newer labels on our Magnum spring packages. I'll try to get an image up here for you.
When all's said and done, you want the loop to flex once the trigger is clipped, this ensures positive firing virtually every time, even on red fox.
