Re: Do Springs Take a Set if the Striker is pre-cocked/the hammer cocked?

I had an AR that sat in the gun case for about 4 years with a round in the chamber, cocked and locked. When I was shooting it later, I started getting misfires. Tried with different makes of ammo, same issue. It wasn't hitting the primer hard enough. I put in a Wolf Extra Power hammer spring. Problem solved. Since then, I've stored the gun uncocked with an empty chamber.
