shooter57 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Have a new springfield 1911A1 in 9mm, was going to change the 28# spring to a 19#. Was I surprized when I dropped the housing and the spring is not pin into the housing,they give you a pin to stick in the housing after you pull the hammer back to keep the spring compressed. My problem is the 19# spring is two long to operate the hammer,do they make a shorter 19# spring for 9mm? I only have 45's and never ran into this before. Thanks in advance for the help.

RickB Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Change all the guts to standard Colt/G.I. parts when you swap the spring out of the ILS housing. I've seen at least one source for the correct cap, pin, etc. sold as a kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
