Is there a way to release the spring on the A&K M249 after your finished using it for the day to ensure the spring isn't compressed when you put the gun away.

I realize on a normal rifle with a Semi-Automatic setting you can fire it on semi auto a couple of times to get the spring to release but there is only one mode on the M249 which is fully auto. So how does a person know the spring is decompressed?

Help on this is greatly appreciated.
