Take down lever (which way?)

mystical_tutor · 10-19-2013, 10:40 AM

Is there a way to test/measure the recoil spring while in the gun? I have never known a good way to do that, thus I always start trouble shooting (depending on the way the malfunction has occoured) with the mag. It, for me, is the easiest thing to RO. Obviously if your toggle assembly is not going back into battery the mainspring pops to the top of the list.

If the mainspring is out of the gun is there a compression test that can tell you if it is stout enough?
