Trying to find out the specs on them for a friend. I was thinking about buying them off of him, but I am going with brand new Lunati dual springs instead. I figured since I wasted his time with holding onto them I'd at least do him the favor to find out the spring rate and such so he can resell them to someone else.

If they are used. You can at best ball park it. Id contact the manufacture to see if they can identify them. Sometimes there is a marking on the spring itself. If u had the box it would solve everything.

Yeah, these have no company identification imprint on them. Although it they do have this beige/skin tone stripe painted down the sides about a centimeter wide.
