I'm planning on replacing the commercial buffer tube with a mil-spec one on one of my ARs in the near future and had a question. Is it a good idea (or even necessary) to replace the takedown detent spring and buffer retainer spring when I replace the tube or are those springs generally good to go and not something that wears out? Same with the selector detent spring when replacing the grip?
Did a search and didn't find anything specifically relevant to the spring replacement. Never heard of those springs wearing out, but haven't seen or read everything in my life. Sorry if it's a silly question.
Receiver is a Windham marked Bushy produced around 2006. Relatively low round count and sat in storage for over four years.
