Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - How often should I change the extractor spring?
Posted: 5/7/2004 7:26:32 AM EDT
I have approximately 7,000 rounds through my AR.  Yesterday, it started having failures to extract.  I believe it’s attributable to a weak extractor spring.

How often should I change out that spring?

Are the Dfender d-rings worth the $?

Thanks

Change it when you start to have issues.  If you want to be 'safe' then every 5-6K rounds.

No the DFender isn't worth the $15.

Get some xtra power springs from Wolff and you don't need the D'fender or D'bumper or whatever they call it.
