Magnum Research Baby Eagle .45 Spring

gute · August 4th, 2008, 11:48 AM

First time 'baby eagle' user: first time to the range was great.

Accurate, solid, comfortable pistol. But when I took it apart I have two springs.

Are both the recoil springs and they fit over one another underneath the barrel?

I can't find any specific guidance on springs for the .45.

I shot it w/ just the small spring and it was having some issues recycling the next round. I put the larger spring over the smaller spring, put the weapon back together and I definitely feel it is tighter.

any help would be appreciated

Some small pistols have two springs like that, in this case both must be in place. My manual refers to recoil springs not spring.
