[QUOTE="Hangfire, post: 3352292, member: 27673"] I own four factory 5" stainless 1911's.......Springfield Armory Mil-Spec, S & W 'E' Series, Remington R1-S and a Ruger SR1911. How often do you need to change recoil springs ?. I've read that 16, 17 and 18 pounds are the most commonly used but how do you determine what weight to purchase or one that best duplicates the factory spring ? I've also read that flat coil springs are somehow better than my factory round coils (which seem to run just fine)......true or not ? There's several different mfgs of springs out there......what are the good brands ? [/QUOTE]
