Sal_lamme Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 My Sterling Mk 6 closed bolt carbine will FTE with most brands of 9mm ammo. It will run well on Blazer 115 gr. Using Winchester white box value pack spent cases sometimes get smashed by the bolt while still in the receiver. I suspect too heavy a recoil spring (the inside smaller one). Also the gun sommetimes slam-fires. Maybe too heavy a firing pin spring. Has anyone experienced a simular problem? Any suggestions ? Sal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froster Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 All I think is required is some thorough cleaning in and around the bolt and chamber. Is it difficult to get the firing pin out of the bolt? Check the extractor recess and the extractor carefully. I hope you're still checking this post.
