This fellow here has the m60 recoil springs. You have to Email him & ask for them.
I just got two from him.
Bradrock - Looking at sharpsshooters list is it a recoil spring or a return spring that is needed?

Hell if I know! Heh...Heh
I thought they were the same thing. I bought the long skinny round one
I guess I need a M60 kit now so I can see the difference!!


I'm still stumped on the MG3 topcover & having a hell of a time on the shelf rack/ rails also. No Home Depot around here & alll Google searches so far say no longer available.

LOL. This is why I asked.

M60 Recoil Spring

versus

m60 top cover return spring For Sale at GunAuction.com





I haven't been to home depot in a while. Next time I'm in there I'll check about the shelf rack/rails. I've noticed that sometimes home depot will have things in their stores that aren't listed on their site.

I found them on the Home Depot site.. Just NO mail order & closest store with stock was in Louisiana.
I think I found them on google search this morning. I'll try to order in a bit. I just hope RTG gets the topcovers someday or I'll just have a pile of parts . Did get the feedtray from them this week after a months wait.

I found some shelving brackets that will work at Lowes.

They measure about .660" wide x 3/8" deep x .060" thick. They ought to work perfect with minor trimming. You will have to strip the paint off of them, though.
