[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Common failure?

A leg broke off my trigger spring at the range yesterday and wedged under the front of the trigger so I had a dead lock...no movement.

The spring legs are supposed to be up on top of the trigger pin, correct?

Admit it, you tried the $.25 trigger job and it went bad.

Standard AR-15. I put a new match trigger in it a few years back.

I had a primer do that to me once. Sucks to be at the range and have a gun stop working with no tools to fix it. I've never heard of a FCG spring breaking though.
