Removing some coils from the 1916 Spanish Mauser bolt? Anyone do this with any COC?
Hey guys,
Just wondering if anyone has removed any bolt spring coils from their M93 or similar cock on close Mauser. I'm just going to shoot this from a bench so it's not a big deal anyways but I do reload and like the idea of feeling the feedback from the case as I chamber. I hope that doesn't offend anyone =P. I know it can be sacrilegious to mess with a milsurp. My 1903a3 runs so smooth with 3/4" off the spring and you can always go back with a nos spring. Not sure how plentiful M93 springs are. They used to sell a kit with a trigger but I see it's discontinued.
Edit: looks like they are sold for fairly cheap so probably worth a shot to see. Maybe 1/2" to see how it does.
