I have tecnical/repair question for M1A1icon carbine wire stock. My M1A1
is quite good shape for such an age, but wire stock would need small adjustment.
Somehow these 60years upper and lower wire stock parts are receded from eachothers
and buttstock spring can't keep them on position. See pics what i mean.

What is forum members opinions, if i warm little bit stock wire and press it. Then buttstock
spring might stay on own place. Second pic shows, how it should be on the right place.
You can see from that pic, that both upper and lower parts are nicely together
but on my case, wire endings are receded little bit and butt stock spring force can't
keep wire endings together.

All advices are more than a welcome
