You've found an excellent advisor there. I've found the remington springs are under quite a bit of tension -with or without the screw engaged. to put it back in, I insert the spring into the hammer then put a dowell or cartridge case between the spring and the front of the frame. That way, I can push down on the bottom of the spring, flex it over the dowell/etc until it comes even with the slot and then push it right in.

Unlike the colt types, the remington uses one screw to retain the bolt and trigger. It helps to push a pin through the off side to get the parts aligned before wiggling the screw through them.
