Another Compensator Question

Hey DoIt,
I removed the compensator cover assembly and noticed wear on the surface of the spring retainer plate( the one closet to the "ears"). I also noticed that the springs are loose. When I push the spring plates away from the bent "ears" there is about a 1/4 inch between the outer retainer plate and where the plate should contact the bent "ears". Is wear on the outer plate normal and should the spring plates be loose?
 
The spring plates should not be loose; you should need a press or vise to depress them. Can you post a pic of the outer spring that is showing wear?
