Need Hold Open Spring - Sarco?

paul7177 · 12-09-2014, 01:24 PM

I see that Sarco has new replacement hold open springs. Does anyone know about the quality of these springs?

I bought one last year and it worked fine in a shooter.

Be careful with Sarco. He is having military parts made in China and selling them at US prices. Make sure the parts you are getting are guaranteed to be original manufacture, and NOT Chinese reproductions.

Tried the SARCO spring. It is an improperly formed piece of junk! They also have very slow service.
