Greetings,
Need to speak with any Hellion owner who can answer a question. I drove out the Main trigger pin instead of the barrel catch release pin while removing the barrel to change the flash hider and the trigger middle spring fell out. After removing the correct pin and removing the barrel I was able to reassemble said spring into the trigger assembly according to the rather iffy exploded diagram in the hellion manual. Called Springfield and they said send the rifle in. Not doing that. What I need is a pic looking down on the trigger assembly with the barrel removed. I know Springfield doesn’t recommend removing the barrel but it was necessary to do it so barrel vise jaws could be used to removed the vastly over tightened flash hider which came off after much grunting. Ok didn’t mean to write a book! Please respond via email to charlie.hillmann@gmail.com. Thanks and yes first time posting
