What nobody checks when changing Recoil spring

[Dave Waits]

Pappy, since the recommended whackoff is 1/2 coil at a time, this doesn't need to be Neurosurgery because, in all probability, the final cut will make the spring a hair short. But, that will not hurt operation.

Don't get me wrong, you can use precision measuring and get down do trimming off .001" at a time off the spring but, it isn't necessary and is a waste of time.
