colt series 80 goverment
My Colt Gvt seems to have a hard time ejecting a spent round and also has trouble feeding. Is this a spring issue?

Get a glock or keep adding parts. You cant fix stupid.
In a world of compromise some men dont.

Re: colt series 80 goverment
Unless you have a super heavy recoil spring in the gun- it's probably not a spring issue. If you are in Sellersville, you can bring it by the shop (Lowe's Certified Guns, on Bethlehem Pike) and I'll have a look at it.

Re: colt series 80 goverment
quick check and clean time...
remove the firing pin and the extractor.
clean out thouroughly the firing pin hole and the extractor hole.
this takes 3 hands lol....
as you are pushing the firing pin forward to remove the firing pin retainer plate, push down on the detent that disengages the firing pin safety.. it looks like a small button and is on the same track as the firing pin.
inspect the extractor,,, look for either it to be broken or check the extractor rim for burrs, breaks or high spots.
if you see any of this then the extractor is broken.
if not the extrator then a detailed explination of the stoppage would help in further troubleshooting.gotta love her ;)
