So i blew a case a little while ago and my extractor went flying but i managed to find the plunger and spring. Just got a new extractor but when i went to replace it i also noticed that the "hold open" spring on the trigger housing is mangled and the "hold open" piece is flopping around.
I put everything back together without the spring and cycled a couple of snap caps through it. It seems to be working just fine now. Do I really need this spring, or am I going to be spending the evening bending paper clips to make a new spring?
 
The spring holds the hold open down if the spring is missing it may lock back because the hold open bounced up on recoil. Try it if it works your fine just don't try to shoot upside down.
