Hello Folks,
I need some advice please.
Can someone tell me what is the correct method of installing a new recoil spring onto a guide rod. In other words should the spring when compressed with the spring cap fit completely into the cap?
Is there a correct recoil spring weight for a govt model SVI 9mm pistol?
Or is it tuned to the individual shooters feel?
I find that when I fit a spring into the spring cap the slide hits pretty hard when fired. What is the correct method to be used?
Kindly let me know
thanks and regards
