I'd like to hear more about that spring, Jimmy? I'm sitting here with one of NRA firearm assembly books open to p. 150 (Winchester m12) and I can't find it. I've stripped both of mine several times, the cartridge stop always falls out on its own recognizance but I don't recall any springs except for the wishbone ejector in the receiver wall beside the bolt. I thought the chingus was cammed upward temporarily by a projection on the bolt.
