Interestingly, most Norinco or Polytech m305 or M14 rifles have op rod springs that are slightly smaller internally than their American-made counterparts, so while some US market spring guides can bind up most of the guides available on the Canadian market have been made specifically for the Norinco spring dimensions. These are typically machined rods with an external dimension that matches the stock op rod spring. The solution is as simple as removing the stock spring guide and installing an aftermarket one. Due to the looseness of the Garand-style action, this means the bolt may be seated slightly to the left or right when it returns to battery, which in turn decreases accuracy. It essentially creates a situation in which the spring pushes the bolt to the left and right as it traverses rearward. As the action cycles, this spring pops back and forth continuing the wave motion, which in turn leads to the bolt returning to battery inconsistently. It is readily accessible when the action is removed from the stock and is clearly visible on the bottom of the barreled action.īecause the stock guide does not fill the internal dimension of the op rod spring completely, the spring fits over the guide imprecisely and forms a wave to the left and right.
The stock piece, being constructed of a simple single stamped piece, serves to provide the recoil spring with a guide as the action cycles.
