    Excellent Spring!

    Posted by Nick on Dec 17th 2012

    I replaced my stock recoil spring with this wilson 18# spring in my Springfield 1911 and the reliability is even better now when shooting large amounts of dirty ammo at the range. No problems whatsoever. If it works this good at the range with large amounts of cheap ammo, I know I can depend on it in the field with premium ammo if the day comes that I need it.

    Excellent Recoil Spring

    Posted by Aron Monta on May 20th 2011

    I got this recoil spring with WC one piece full length guide rod and it is great! It has been so reliable that even shooting lighter ammo like the Cor-Bon DPX 160 Grain my carry ammo, the case still gets ejected and extracted flawlessly. It has been 100% reliable and the gun is more controllable, less felt recoil than the original 16 lbs or less recoil spring. I highly recommend this to everyone who depend their lives on 1911 pistols.. another great product from Wilson Combat

    Key To Combat Reliability, Wilson Springs.

    The greatest 1911 still relies on a well tuned recoil spring to keep everything else in fluid motion. You might as well spring for the best, pun intended. Most advice suggests a change every 3000 rounds but Wilson springs maintain their form so well, especially with a guide rod, that you can easily double that. Compared to other spring manufactures, I would only take a 1911 with a Wilson recoil spring into a fight.
