Greetings in the name of our patron saint, John Moses Browning! I've thoroughly enjoyed your "Springfield Test" thread, so much in fact, that I'm now planning on purchasing my very own Springfield Mil-Spec.
Now here's my question: I've always installed Wilson Shok-Buffs in my 1911's along with standard weight (16#) recoil springs. I haven't noticed any mention of recoil buffers of any kind in your posts, and conclude that you may not approve of their use. Am I correct?
OK, one more question while I'm at it. Do recoil buffers affect the recoil spring tension by a significant amount? I notice you like reduced power recoil springs in the 14# range. Been thinking of trying that spring weight myself...
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Tuner; I've learned quite a bit from you!
Regards,
A devoted student of the 1911
