3.2 Assembly
Assembly of the M6 Series is accomplished by reversing the disassembly steps. During
reassembly take note of the following:
1. When reinstalling the operating rod, operating rod spring and operating rod spring
cup rotate the operating rod spring cup until it fully seats against the barrel nut.
2. When reinstalling the intermediate rod ensure that the operating rod is depressed
firmly so that the operating rod spring is fully compressed.
3. When reinstalling the buffer and buffer spring push the buffer fully past the buffer
detent and ensure it is captured behind the detent.
4. When reinstalling the carrier sear assembly first ensure the rear take down pin is all
the way retracted to its second slot. Replace the carrier sear assembly and maintain
downward pressure while simultaneously pushing the rear take down pin in and
rotating clockwise to its first stop position.
5. When reinstalling the extractor, line up the holes by pressing firmly on the center
of the extractor while reinstalling the extractor pin.
6. While reinstalling the firing pin retaining pin ensure the firing pin is fully forward
and the firing pin retaining pin is installed from left to right when looking from
the rear of the weapon.
