Thank you Steiner, i just ordered a rooster 33 op rod spring guide as well, looks sweet and hope it's worth the $71.07can and he also said the norinco op springs are the strongest and most durable over all others apperantly due matterials they are made of, so to stick with the stock spring. and for all you other M-14 freaks out there if you have trouble finding recoil buffers i can set you's up with a supplier out of saskatewan. They sell them 2 for $10.00can and $3.50 shipping to anywere in canada and they are great and last long.
Thanx again, Hans
