SlammedBlueEM2 is on a distinguished road
It's quite normal for the springs to creak... I have no explaination why except they're cheap.

What you can do is check if everything's on, and lube the spring(s).

I had that problem also when I had mine GC's. All I had to do was grease them up, and then it went away.
