No problem. Better to ask ahead of time, than fuck it up. Good luck with your first build!

Disconnect spring is slightly flared at one end...

This is good info in case you use a LPK that isn't color coded. Flared end goes into trigger.

On my first build i had initially installed the disconnector spring upside down. A quick function check of the trigger felt "gritty". Flipped it over and it was smooth. At any rate, yes, the flared end goes down.
