I bought a new WSAR10 Friday, took it home cleaned it up over the weekend, then went to the range on Sunday. While shooting I had a few failures to eject, some where stove pipes, others the spent case got stuck inside the action.
One of the guys at the range hinted that maybe I didn't get the extractor all the way clean, which is a good possibility since I didn't completely take the bolt apart to clean. So last night I took the bolt apart and cleaned it.
Being more fimiliar with ARs I noticed the extractor moved alot easier than it does on an AR. I could push the extractor back and forth with my fingure. I was also expecting more tensionon the spring when I took the bolt apart, (I assumed the spring and extractor would go flying apart as soon as the pin was removed) but after the pin was out, nothing really happened.
So I guess my question is, is this the way the extractor/spring are on other AK, or should I be thinking about finding a new spring somewhere? Where is a good place to get an extractor spring from?
