    OK, a careful chamber polish it is then. I do have a Dremel tool with the flexible bit, so it should work. I will work it s directed, with some light oil to assist. I will then reinstall the original dust cover and go to the range (hopefully this weekend) and report back. The recoil springs are properly oriented.
    As always, thanks for the thoughtful advice to assist me in my quest to have a smooth runnning L1A1....

    Slowly, slowly catchy monkey Mike....

    The chamber doesn't need to be mirror finished, just reduce the resistance.

    Good luck and finger's crossed for a result
