I bought a Tactical Springs buffer/recoil spring from you (G&R) a while back, and I was pleased to find it had that huge extractor spring included with it.
As you already know, that extractor spring was HUGE, and MUCH larger/longer/thicker diameter coiled, then ANY other extractor spring on the market.
In fact, it's almost TOO big, and is SO DIFFICULT to install, even with pliers. It can be installed however.
It is also the ONLY TRUE 5 coil spring I have EVER seen, and I've bought and used them all. It actually has FIVE coils, unlike all the others I've purchased in the past.
I was just wondering if you Grant, or anyone else here had used those huge extractor springs, or if anyone knows why they are SO much bigger than all other extractor springs on the market? ALL the G&R tactical, BCM/etc extractor springs I've ever tried, have NOT been 5 coil springs, but rather 4, or maybe 4.5 coils...
(despite being advertised as "5 coil" springs)...???
