help identifying parts in my VSR 10

Hello all

I bought a second hand vsr-10 that had been slighty upgraded, the person who sold it me had no idea what upgrades it has had, So tonight i plucked up the courage and opened it up for the first time.

The first thing i noticed was the spring guide was white plastic, im guessing this is stock?

i couldnt open the cylinder, But i managed to pull the piston back a little way, after the metal bit the piston is RED in colour. Is this an upgraded piston, As i thought that the stock piston was white all over?

Im pretty sure the cylinder and cylinder head are both stock, There both bright silver in colour and the cylinder didnt feel particularly strong?

Next i wanted to cheek the sears.

the piston sear was dark black in colour, with little wear marks at all. is this upgraded?

the trigger sear was grey/silver in colour and didnt look as good quality as the piston sear. is this upgraded?

the spring guide stopper looked like the same metal as the trigger sear, grey/silver in colour. is this upgraded?

One other question. To removed the cylinder head, Do i just need to use a pair of needle nose pliers, put them in the two holes in the cylinder head and untwist anti clockwise? I did try this, but it would not budge at all.
Im guessing the pin in the cylinder head has already been drilled out, as it has an uggraded spring in alredy.

Also what are the minimal parts needed to run a 170sp spring. Im hoping just the piston sear, trigger sear, and high pressure piston. Will this be ok?



Cheers.
