Review
I ordered and installed without an issue. It is longer and a little tougher to install than a standard spring. But with a little effort it went together well. I have ran quite a few rounds through my Century after a binary install...and this little spring is part of the ticket to getting it running flawlessly!! Thanks MCARBO!
Bought 2 one each for an AK47 and AK74. Pretty easy install after watching the MCarbo video. Rifles have less felt recoil and the empty cases are a lot closer. I built both rifles from parts kits and wished I would have done this a couple years ago LOL.
A great replacement spring, a little tricky to install, but my AK now functions like it did when it was new. I thought this was to be the case so I ordered TWO! Rob.
I ordered the spring in the hopes to reduce recoil on my AK 47. Also to save some where and tear on the rifle. The shipping was a bit slow, but no fault of Mcarbo. Expected this during the holidays. I installed the spring last Friday. I had a little help from the wife. My hands aren't as strong as they use to be. After a couple of tries, we got the spring installed. The video was very helpful. Wife after some instruction finally got the idea on what to do. Ha! Haven't shot the rifle yet. But I will update the review when I do.
Awesome company and awesome accessories ,fast shipping,Great customer service, my go-to shop
Me and my son have many Aks. This is the spring of my choice to use. There's no better spring that I have found.
Excellent quality extra power recoil spring. Softens recoil and the gun cycles perfectly. Simple inexpensive upgrade.
Have replaced milspec recoil springs in both my Polish under folder and Romanian Aks. Both have been 100% reliable with MCARBO spring, no issues after several hundred rounds. Fast shipping, easy install, good price
Due to the success I've had with all other M*CARBO products, decided to give this one a try. I installed the new spring in my Saiga/Arsenal SGL21 and it works very well - no issues there at all. I believe the How-To Videos are the best I've seen anywhere - thanks again for these. For me, the installation was much harder than shown in the video; as I age, my hand strength and arthritis make these tasks very challenging. I decided to remove the forward portion of the recoil spring guide rod prior to installation and was able to compress the new spring enough to capture it with an allen wrench and then reattach the forward portion of the recoil spring guide rod (if I had not done it this way I would never have been able to pull the forward portion up - without asking for a third hand, and my wife will no longer assist me with gun work, locating errant springs, pins, etc.).
Excellent product, works as described. Easy installation.
This recoil spring is a great upgrade to the factory spring. It allows for a stronger felt pull and release of the bolt, which to me also helps with less feed jams. Stronger spring helps with less felt recoil. I highly recommend it.
Haven't shot it yet, but you will feel the extra resistance installing the spring and moving the bolt. I am sure it will do as promised!
spring is very nice easy installation feels really good highly recommend for your ak
