I always re-sprung my comp gun once a year, in the spring, before the season started. With the Glock and M&P that was sometimes 12,000-15,000 rounds. Respringing a gun every 3 or 4 months if you shoot in high volumes seems quite excessive. I honestly don't know anyone who resprings more than 2 times a year with a 2011 or Production gun no matter what number of cycles the springs are seeing, and that works well for them.

You need to pay a little bit more attention to that hammer spring, sear spring, and trigger return spring. They will leave you wishing you had changed them out at the worst possible time for you...... I understand not doing the whole gun, i actually prefer some springs to loose some weight....... I wont chance a hammer spring, sear spring, or trigger return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My "Match" gun for sure doesn't go over 5-6K, my practice/Dryfire gun..... probably 8-10K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
