I am in full speed scope swapping, 10/22 and AR fiddling, swivel and barrel band installing mode. It's that time of year.

The man cave is a real mess as a result.

Anyhow, it is 2:30 AM and I see my .223 UL Hawkeye SS peeking out of the safe. I've had a trigger spring from Ernie the Gunsmith for months but haven't used the rifle since sage rat hunting. I pulled the stock, put it in a rifle stand and took off the stock spring. Man did that thing fly!

I was darn careful with the replacement spring and still haven't found the other one.

Anyhow, like I said...

The most dreaded sound in amateur gunsmithing, is

SPANG!

Spring has departed for parts unknown, possibly never to be found again.

Flying Gun Springs can hide better than Obama Birth Certificate and School Records.

It is a well known fact that the more expensive or hard to replace a part is, the more easily it can be lost off the work bench
