This is the story..........
I have a Norinco M14 and would like to replace the recoil-spring for a brand new stainless steel Springfield M1A spring. ???? Go figure.
So, I E-Mailed my request to Springfield Armory and told them I owned a Springfield rifle and had lost my recoil-spring and wanted to order one...this is the reply I got:
Dear "Pietro"
Could you forwarding me your mailing address and serial number of the rifle to send the spring? Don’t worry about that the cost.
Holy-Moly, I thought. But theres one problem, I dont own a springfield.
What should I do?............
can anybody provide me with a valid serial number from their M1A?
But I'm not sure I should even do this... I dont want to "fraud" the guy out of a spring. Should I just come clean and tell the guy I've got a Norinco M-14 and I'd like to purchase a spring? (He'd probally spit on me, or something)
Do you think he'd refrence the serial number to the owner?
...I dont know.
