Don,

I think leaving it as is may be the best answer yet. Your right about the double spring setup. I just tried to make one with a C96 mainspring and came very close but there just wasn’t enough room.
Also did GT’s measurement test and have confirmed it’s the longest possible spring that can be installed.

Your last point got me thinking... Could a small amount of material be removed from the back of the breech block? It seems as if the parts coming into contact are hitting very slightly, just enough to leave a mark. Maybe if a little material was removed they wouldn’t touch?

I am not removing it myself again... It was a miracle I got it back together without scratching anything!!!

Here are the requested photos. Please ignore the fingerprints.

Best,
-Miles
