My goal is to have the recoil spring at 15lbs. and a shock buff too but I cant slide lock it and sometimes there is not enough room to extract if I have a jam and need to clear the gun of an unspent round. So far I have clipped a few coils and slide lock is good but feeding is on and off, the slide isn't pushing the round out of the mag and up in the chamber. Still no room for a shock buff. My question ls in seeing about the differences between commander size and full size .45's. I figured a 17lb. mainspring and 15lb. recoil but I cant find those poundages anywhere. Gunspriongs.com doesn't go that low. This help?

I have a 4 inch Kimber, Pro Elite, I want to get up to Limited 10 spec but getting the recoil spring "correct" is throwing me into a tizzy. So far Shok buffs are out the door if I need to extract an unspent round and if I clip too many coils the feeding isnt strong enough. I assume its trial and error but can some one give me a road map? I should have bought a 5 inch Springfield!? Shannon ***sobs with his head in his hands*** ***again***

I read a book a good some years ago called "zen in the martial arts". it was simple and great in expressing how we practitioners attain the spiritual. for so long people fake it and never attain it. for martial artist it tends to go physical, mental(emotional), spiritual. example: when i train on the heavy bag i am creating solid body habits. throwing every blow as if was the last one ever. this excellence is cultivating the mind as well and soon is reflected in all you do on the physical plain. the two feed each other for they are the same, inseperable indeed. i mentioned the emotional because, well, some logic and reason must prevail when we dont get enough sleep...get it? you know that the principal of zen is entering you into the spiritual realm when the principal is applied to your entire life. the way you talk, the way you walk, anyhting, everything not just the arts. you are subject to it when you cant function outside of it. just wanted to add to this forum...i like it alot shan
