Marlin 1894 32-20 Carrier Rocker spring

I have a Marlin 1894 in 32-20, made around 1897.

I have feeding issues and recently took my carrier out of the gun.

I have a carrier with the rocker, but no spring.

I think that is my problem, so I just ordered one from Numrich.

Can someone show or tell me how the flat spring goes into the rocker?

Please see photo attached, you are looking at the back side of the rocker, I assume that is where the flat spring goes.

Thanks, Dennis O.

I’m sure a “modern” 1894 Marlin and the original are different? If not I’ll pull the wife’s apart and take some pic’s for you.

Thank You very much!
I have access to several modern ones, they don’t have a rocker arm, so if it is younger than the 1940’s I would say don’t bother. But thank you for the thoughtfulness.

I assumed they wouldn’t be the same but if it would help I’d be more then happy to tear it down and take pics….

Good luck. :)
