I just picked up an ATI Titan. Looks nice. Pretty darn accurate, but it has feeding issues (I know, not atypical). Won't feed hollow points at all, and with the factory ACT magazine, it fails to feed about half of the time for the first 4 rounds. Other magazines are less problematic, but it still generally misfeeds more than once per mag. Even when it feeds, I can often feel it hang up, with the spring haltingly pushing it into the chamber. It hangs up between the ramp in the frame and the barrel.
My idea is to increase the strength of the recoil spring assembly, by purchasing extra power springs for the Colt Defender spring assembly.
Does anyone know the approximate poundage of the ATI springs? I believe the standard for the Defender is 19 lbs, and some have opined online that the ATI springs are weaker.
I think I will try 21 lbs springs, but would like correction if you have a better idea.
(I know another option is to swap it out for a complete Colt assembly, but they are either out-of-stock or pricey, as far as I can tell, and I would like to try the cheaper option of swapping springs first.)
Let me know if you have any other ideas.
