CA M15A4 Blowback Bolt Spring

Postby Prophet » Fri Jul 16, 2010 6:27 pm

As mentioned in the title, this is about the spring for the Classic Army Blowback M15A4's bolt. Mine snapped while I was... well... obviousely racking the bolt. It snapped and I was wondering if anyone that has had this problem knows a solution, or if hardware stores carry a similar spring. Thanks.
Please, I insist.

For what its worth, some people disconnect / remove the spring as they find it annoying and a waste of battery energy.
Even a fool is thought wise if he keeps silent,
and discerning if he holds his tongue.

this one is so the bolt can return, not for the actual blowback, but anyways, I got some new springs, and I'll most likely head over to Tonka's to have it relplaced, but yeah, I have heard some issues with the blowback on these. Something to keep in thought for later.

I have the gearbox out of my old m15 blowback if you need parts. I was going to sell it at summer slaughter but can hold on to it.

We'll have to see. If you come to Sunday, we'll see what needs to be replaced :D
