I detail stripped my Colt Gold Cup series 70
for the first time. When I removed the sear pin and pulled the sear and disconnector out a VERY small spring dropped out. I knew I was in trouble. A close look at the parts list shows a #44 Sear Depressor and #45 Sear depressor spring.
Q1: How does one put the sear with attached depressor(hold spring) back in and line up the sear pin without the #$%! spring going boing. proceeded by 1 hour of searching for the MkddkFkdkdk spring.
Q2: I thought I read a similiar post about this #$#% spring. and the concensus was to throw it away!. Sounds good to Me. However I would like a pro opinion before doing so
Seems to me this is an awfully small, weak,
part to be running in such a critical place.
Please help.
