As for the term "loading muzzle", can you show a picture of it? I think you're referring to the "loading nozzle"... I know a few companies refer to two different parts as a "loading muzzle", depending on the brand. I differentiate the two parts with the terms "Loading Nozzle", and "Blowback Unit."
It's generally not an issue for the hammer to be touching the blowback unit - I wouldn't try sanding down the bottom of the nozzle. It does not HAVE to retract all the way - it should not affect function in any way if it doesn't retract 100%.


It does function... I have it in some setups, but personally prefer the Guarder 150% springs the most.
Yes I've tried it with and without the dyna floating valve spring and it shoots roughly the same.
Oops I meant loading nozzle that's how AS labels it. I'm referring to one piece plastic loading nozzle/cylinder. So the hammer is rubbing on the bottom of the cylinder causing it to not slide smoothly like the stock one. The stock cylinder/piston shoots great but with the bb rolling out occasionally because of the force from the upped recoil spring (I plan on replacing the hopup packing for this fix).
The AS cylinder shoots a bit sluggish, doesn't slide smoothly, and causes the bb to roll out every time (I think it's cause the AS cylinder nozzle is a bit smaller in diameter)
Any recommendations? If it doesn't work out I'll try the SD POM.

With the AS 170% recoil spring, I meant that it functions fine but it's so stiff that without a full length guide rod to keep it straight, it's really hard to install and it tends to bend from the tension, rubbing on surrounding frame/parts.
