This video from Brownells features Gun Techs Steve Ostrem and Caleb Savant discussing essential spare parts for AK-47, AK-74, and other Kalashnikov-platform rifles. They highlight the importance of replacement springs (hammer, trigger, extractor, recoil) as they can lose tension over time, especially when using a sound suppressor. While other parts like firing pins and extractors are generally durable due to the AK's robust design, the video emphasizes that spare magazines are the most critical "spare part" to have on hand. The advice is practical for AK owners looking to maintain their firearms.
Essential AR-15 spare parts include gas rings, buffer springs, extractor springs, and firing pin retaining pins. Shorter barrels accelerate wear on internal components. Measure buffer springs for serviceability: carbine springs should be at least 10 1/16 inches, rifle springs 11 1/4 inches. Keep original mil-spec trigger parts as backups for aftermarket triggers.
This video provides an update on the Savage A22r Tactical rifle, detailing significant performance issues encountered by the reviewer.

The video also touches upon receiver bore lapping, selector bore gauging, and pistol grip installation issues. While focusing on FCGs, it explicitly states it does not cover anti-rotation pins, lightened hammer springs, or cassette triggers. The content is highly technical and geared towards AR-15 builders and enthusiasts seeking to understand and optimize their trigger systems.
This video showcases an "Amazing Trigger Kit" for the Thompson Center Compass rifle, specifically by MCARBO. The reviewer highlights the $20 trigger spring kit as a significant upgrade, stating it provides a "match grade trigger" that enhances the rifle's accuracy. The presenter believes this upgrade should have been standard on the rifle from the factory and is crucial for "squeezing every ounce of accuracy" out of the Compass. The description also includes links to the reviewer's Amazon store and social media, along with a call to like and subscribe for weekly content from the "Deuce and Guns" channel.
This video demonstrates how to reduce the trigger pull weight on a CZ455 rifle by replacing the factory trigger spring with a lighter aftermarket one. The process involves disassembling the rifle by removing action screws, carefully removing the pin holding the trigger assembly, swapping the spring, and reassembling. A lighter trigger pull minimizes shooter-induced movement, enhancing accuracy, especially for competitive shooting.
This video details the GlockStore Performance Center Competition Spring Kit, focusing on its components designed to reduce trigger pull weight. It explains the function of the reduced power striker spring (4lb vs. factory 5.5-6lb), the reduced power safety plunger spring, and the increased power trigger spring, noting how the latter aids in trigger reset. The demonstration includes safe disassembly of a Glock 17, highlighting internal slide components and the process for replacing the springs.
