Hello folks,
Some advise needed please.
Should the entire length of a new spring when put on a full length guide rod fit under the spring cap when compressed?
I find if I use this method the guide rod hits the barell pretty hard when a shot is fired and the slide moves back.
What is the correct method one should use? Or is there a tried and tested formula to choose the correct spring weight and length for a 9mm svi govt model pistol?
Kindly shed some light on this for me please
Thanks and regards
