Just found your post.. comparing my model 8 single spring to model 81 double spring I would say they will not interchange..81 has a cut in the trigger group plate in both sides similar to the one on the left side of the model 8 to accommodate the thickness of the spring. the barrel lock mechanism inside the rifle has a cut for fitting the spring as well.

349 ehhh :D
A seller with prices like that gets a hard pass me.

-back on topic.
I don't see why you couldn't use any of the 3 variations, given you modify the trigger guard to accept left/right side springs.

I assume the original poster is long gone.
