So glad I found this thread... eagerly awaiting the release of the bigger 308 Maverick receiver!
Muscle car, German car, Dodge diesel 4x4, beer, bikes, and everything else fun!
Anyone tried the JP Silent spring in their Renegade? Had a pile of problems with the standard spring installed from the factory today; would not fully go into battery. The spring, barrel, and bolt had all been tested on an AR and worked flawlessly.

There should be no problem with the factory installed spring. All factory guns are test fired. Please email info@mapleridgearmoury.com and we can help resolve the issue.
My rifle is one of the receiver kits that I have swapped parts from an AR to get up and running. This was not a full rifle from the shop. That said, it is a Wilson Combat barrel and Daniel Defense bolt tjat mated perfectly before. I am asking if anyone has tried the JP silent spring assembly and if they have had problems.

Are you ridding the charging handle or letting it snap into battery?
I am pulling it back as hard as I can and letting it go. Same as I do with my pistols.

Just pulled the bolt off the AR BCG and dropped it onto the Renegade BC. Am I supposed to remove the gas rings?
Sure hope it is not a barrel issue. Whole point of this thing was to salvage a really good barrel. Thing is worthless to me if it does not work with this barrel.
