The bolt VERY quickly drops out of place but then pops right back up.

I think the bolt/trigger spring is the wrong one or has been altered. It looks like the trigger side is shorter (or has been cut shorter) and it feels WAY stiffer than it should..are the springs on the BP colts and 1873s interchangeable? If so when that wolff set I ordered for my cattleman arrive I'll try the bolt spring in it and if it works I'll just put them in it, instead of the Uberti.
