Checking the install can be done by breaking open the rifle.
OP - Shotgun the upper. With the hammer forward take a look at the hammer spring. It should look like the picture below. The ends of the spring should be OVER the trigger pin. In this orientation properly installed hammer legs will come from UNDER the coil on the hammer pin, not over the top of the coil. You don't have to remove to check.

If the hammer spring is installed correctly, you will need to remove the FCG to check the spring for the disconnector. The disconnector spring has a 'big' end which is installed into the trigger. If the disconnector spring is installed upside down reportedly the rifle can double, or more likely, allow the hammer to follow the bolt home without firing.
