Flash74 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 If you look on Amazon, Greg Cote sells color coded spring packs that let you tune your pistol. I got a pack of recoil springs (11-15lb) and a pack of main springs (15-17lb). Although he doesn't list the manufacturer, I believe they are ISMI springs. They dont have the length or heavy feel of Wolf. This has enabled me to tune my pistols (16.40 & 18.9) to see the effect of different recoil and main springs have on the pistols. I tried each main spring and could not feel a difference in the trigger pull. I even had a 19lb and could barely tell a difference in pull. Even though a 15lb main spring worked, I went with 17lb for reliability. No sense in having a light strike during a match if I dont need to. Recoil springs worked out to be 11lb for 18.9 and 13lb for 16.40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParaGunner Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I use Sprinco recoil springs( not the guide rod). I like the recoil springs better than the rest. All there springs are color coded. I run a 12 Sprinco recoil spring in my P16's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
