Sudden Death Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 I understand the recoilmaster big spring is 14 lb. can you change the big spring with a regular 1911 recoil spring but in a different weight like a 12 or 13 lb. spring ? Thanks for all help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Biondi Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Both the springs in recoilmaster give you a weight of 14 lbs. not only the main spring. However you can change it with a regualar recoil spring to get different feeling. I have use it with a 10 lbs varible power Wolff and it worked fine...

boz1911 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I'm sorry but I tried a recoilmaster (won on prize table) in my gun and I can't for the life of me understand how you could possible like the recoil impulse it generates. At least try running a mag with a standard recoil guide rod.............just my opinion......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sudden Death Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 I have a regular guide rod that I started with I used a 14 var. wolff spring but for some reason the recoil master workes better for me BUT I never tried a different weight spring with my regular guide rod maybe I should ?

Its depends from what feeling you wanna get fron your gun... if you prefere a classic feeling like the regular guide rod or a reduced speed feeling like the recoil master with another recoil spring.... its up to you!

Loves2Shoot Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 The feel is different and that is about it. I think you might get better feeding if you were to have a mag on the edge of working or not. Sometimes I'll switch stuff up so I pay attention. I have a couple students who really prefer the RM. I don't really care either way as I shoot lots of differnt guns and it doesn't make the times faster or slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el pres Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 (edited) Does anyone know the combined weight of a Recoilmaster light?? Nevermind, find it on the forum, 12lbs. right!! Edited October 20, 2007 by DIRTY CHAMBER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Focus Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 A1 this year a guy in my squad had one break in his gun, not only was it hard to get the gun apart but he also trashed that stage because of it. I have heard of this happening a lot but have never seen it until then. I would personally stick to a tungsten and buy a range of springs then test them with double taps and see how closer you’re shots are with all of them and use the closest one.
