I found the MBX 140 springs. They are flared out at the bottom to prevent the spring from buckling. Too then to the range and 175rds later, perfection! Worked just fine with stock Glock follower!

Thanks!

Thought about that and I could have ordered the wrong ones. I’ll cut a couple coils off and retest.

Is 170mm to long and should be 140mm with a +5?

I see the spring all sideways in the base pad.

Hello, I have new mags, ISMI 170mm springs with a +5 base pad. Problem is after about 13rds the spring buckles. It’ll take 22rds but only 5 will come out under spring pressure and then the rest fall out. When I take base pad off I can see spring tweaked. Help please!

Thank you sir!

agreed! What about the short stroke of the slide? Also are aluminum ones better than the squishy ones? I’ve read they bounce

Good info also! Thanks!

Good info! Thanks.

What about this “short cycle” topic?

Hey all, I’ve read so many threads about this on a few forums. I know they say it protects and it causes short cycle of the slide. what are the benefits of short slide cycle besides quicker reset. thanks.

Most run 19lb hammer spring and 16lb recoil spring for Single Stack.

Armanov has these groves in the back of the grip.

Hello, does anyone know if the techwell magwells will work with the Armani’s spidergo grips for a 1911? Thank you!

Can you share a pic of the grips with the magwell?

Thank you all for your info and recommendations. I ended up deciding to go with the Armanov grips!

Aren’t they in Europe? It doesn’t look like they make non ergo style either. I don’t really like that ergo look.

Hello all, I am looking for thick full size non beveled bottom aggressive grips to use with my Dawson magwell. I have large hands. Do the VZ grips come thick? Any advice would be appreciated!

Hello, I have the ice mag well. With the base pad I showed above they stick past the mag well enough to be certain the mag seats! Do the Dawson’s do the same and stick below a little? Thank you

No, I need them at .635 for my Dawson mag well

Does anyone know if the Wilson Combat ones will work with CM?

No luck at Dawson.
