Funny, I took my grip tape off recently and wish I had done it sooner. I prefer the chalk without it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My load is about 132-135, I think lower than that you might run into problems. I had a gen5 slide blank milled for a similar setup. I modified it to accept a longslide 1911 recoil spring. All that preload let’s me run an 11# equivalent spring and still have plenty of oomph to close the slide against a 5# striker spring. So even though peak spring force is reduced, it’s near factory in battery. Also made a fat tungsten guide rod to match.

dapribek Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 (edited) In case you’re interested, Johnny Glock is selling a return spring that gives a better reset than the red Timney spring. It’s a nice improvement. https://johnnyglocks.com/products/timney-extra-power-return-spring-upgrade Edited March 6, 2023 by dapribek Added link.
