1911 spring question

Post by Cuda »

Ok lets say you order a upgraded spring for your 1911. When you get the mail back you have a reoil spring and a firing pin spring. Do you have to change out the firing pin spring when you upgrade the recoil spring?

They do redcomend it but be assured the firing pin spring will out last the recoil spring by 3 to 1 or more. I usually chang mine out every other time.
