How difficult is it to replace the springs in a spring latch fore end. I have an English 20 with the type of fore end that pushes on, but the latch does not hold as tight as it once did.

thanks,
John

John,
See if you can straighten it a little, before replacing it.

Jusjwp. I am sure that Jack Rowe does this repair in a tutorial that can be found on You Tube with a little searching.

Many thanks for the You Tube and advice. I did not know there were such instructional videos.
