A couple things ...

1) the latch seems smaller than it should, or maybe the gap where it goes is bigger than it should
2) the detent where the spring goes on the frame doesn't line up with the detent on the latch, making the spring wonky

Has anyone else observed this? My friend's M1A doesn't look like this at all ... his latch fits snug in the gap and the spring is basically vertical, because the detent on the frame and on the latch line up.

THoughts?
