I just picked up a really clean National Ordinance M1 carbine. The problem with it is it doesn't fully chamber all the rounds. It'll shove the bolt forward enough to allow you to pull the trigger on many of the rounds, but not close it enough to actually fire--thus also causing repeated misfires. So I assumed it was the recoil spring.
I replaced the recoil spring with one I bought from Fulton armory, but upon pulling the bolt back, it doesn't seem to be any stronger. This has me worried that I didn't fix the problem. How well do Fulton Armory springs work for the M1?
Could I be looking at a different issue here? Might it not be the spring?
