Does anyone know why using a bolt spring that is too long will occasionally cause your mag to lock up? I just don't understand the mechanics of that. The effect is similar to bolt-stick, yet the bolt spring is strong and the carrier is certainly loose enough.

If bolt is sticking in the fully extended position ? .... Likely spring coils are over lapping causing the stick.Originally posted by SchoolU101Does anyone know why using a bolt spring that is too long will occasionally cause your mag to lock up?

If bolt is sticking back just short of sear reset, then check and play with some other bolts.
I have found that the machining of the bolts & inner stem vary just enough that trying another bolt some times does the trick. ( This with Level 7 classics at least )
