Broken retractor spring...help!!
The firing pin retractor spring on my Remington 740 is broken, how does one remove the breech bolt and bolt carrier to replace this? is barrel removal absolutely necessary? Any help in this context would be greatly appreciated Smiler


Cheers!

The barrel has to come off to remove the bolt. It ain't always easy on a 740
