What is the difference between captive and non-captive springs, and why do some people say they are dangerous in GLOCK models? I really would like to know, don't wanna, .... well you know !!!
Then he also knows to balance the striker spring with the recoil spring to avoid misfires/pulling the gun out of battery with the trigger.He has probably forgotten more than anybody here will ever know about the Glock.
In general, anything that causes an off-center primer strike in a Glock is cause for concern.You can go too light:
The firing pin spring can overpower an old or too light recoil spring causing the slide to pull slightly out of battery as you pull the trigger resulting in a light primer strike. If you have off center light primer strike this is probably the cause.
Every single primer strike I've had in thousands of rounds through two Glocks of different caliber have been off-center.
