Sterling Mk6 trigger

[Vincent]

Yes, it’s the magazine catch spring. It doesn’t do anything that I can tell. Just put there by someone who didn’t know where it really belongs. I am sure you have seen “crunchies” do similar things.

The engineers at Sterling did a very good job of making the Mk4 almost impossible to assemble wrong. I guess you can never prevent this level of…. er, “creativity.”

I can't even imagine it really Vincent...as a "Crunchie" myself, we knew what parts went where on things. Even a .30 cal in a bucket wasn't a problem... This would occur to me to be a later act by a civilian...someone with no actual knowledge. Not someone that owned and shot these regularly... I don't think it would even slip into place with that spring there.
