Hary Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I recently purchased a Witness compact in 10mm and I just love this little gun. It's accurate and reliable, but it's also undersprung from the factory. I want to be able to shoot full power 10mm ammo without worrying about damaging the gun, but nobody makes aftermarket recoil springs for the compact. What are my options?

Ronemus Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) I couldn't find recoil springs strong enough for my 10 mm Witness Hunter, so I had some custom made. They were pricey but practically eliminated the battering that occurred with the factory springs. There are a number of places that will do the work - I easily found a dozen with a Google search. I can't remember with certainty which one I used after 5 years, but I think it was McMaster-Carr (http://www.mcmaster.com/#compression-springs/=wi7ykz). You'll have to supply the dimensions for the spring. Be aware that ther's a maximum diameter you can use - too big and you won't be able to assemble the pistol.

RedHawk Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I had the same concerns with mine...a compact 10MM, so I converted it to .40S&W and that's when the slide cracked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Clevenger Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I had the same concerns. The plastic Shock-Buf pads for the CZ-75 fit and work, but they have to be replaced often. I installed a DPM Recoil Reducer and things have been fine ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
