A block of mass $M$ lies at rest connected to a massless spring of spring constant $k$ on a frictionless surface. A bullet of mass $m$ hits the block horizontally with speed $v$ as shown in the figure and is completely stuck to the block. What is the maximum compression in the spring resulting from this impact (assuming that at this point the spring is still not fully compressed)?
