Has anybody else encountered a short fire control selector spring on a new production Colt recently?  Myself and a few others in my area that have bought 6920's lately (two at the same time and 2 at a different time) have gotten springs that were about 4 coils short installed in the rifles, making the selector feel mushy and lacking that crisp snap.  It will lock but it takes very little pressure to flip the switch and I'm worried I might knock it off safe while it's slung.  I was just curious if anyone else has encountered the same thing with recent purchases so I thought I'd ask.

I'm waiting to call Colt Monday to see if they will send me a couple new ones.

I appreciate that info.

EDIT: Called today and got a few replacement parts inbound to me.  Great customer service and problem resolved.  Another +1 for Colt for me.

If anyone else notices the problem they will correct it.
