If you didn’t know the spring was there you would never miss it. If it breaks it just falls in the bottom of the receiver and you can’t see it.
I sent his to a gunsmith and he fixed it and it has ran smoothly ever since. Good luck!

You have to be real careful about that damn spring when you disassemble the rifle. Likes to pop out.
