What is the WOLFF - 1911 CHROME SILICON RECOIL SPRING?

Chrome silicon steel recoil spring resists taking a set even after thousands of compression cycles for improved performance and reliability. Available in three power ratings, so you can match spring weight to your specific gun and the type of load you shoot. Use Reduced Power 14 lb. spring for target loads with lighter than standard bullets or powder charges, Factory Standard 16 lb. spring for all-around reliability with the widest range of ammo, and Extra Power 18½ lb. spring for smoother cycling and less slide battering with heavy loads. The 14# and 18 1/2# springs comes with an extra power firing pin spring to ensure positive ignition and an extra margin of safety in preventing accidental discharges.


SPECS: Chrome silicon spring steel. Available in 14, 16 & 18Ð… lb. weights. Fits 1911 Auto Government Model.

A must when firing +P rounds.
This comes as a set. 18.5 recoil spring and the correct firing pin spring are included. This spring let's you fire standard power loads reliably, and keeps your slide and frame from being damaged by the plus P loads. Use the guide rod buffers for maximum protection. Less felt recoil is also a benefit. With this spring set, you can fire regular, and extra power loads, especially if you're using the guide rod buffers with the confidence that your gun isn't being damaged.

Wolff is always top quality
I realize the trend these days is toward lighter and lighter recoil springs, but I guess I'm old-school; every .45 1911 I have gets a 18 1/2# Wolff spring right out of the box. I like the recoil impulse with this spring and a flat-bottom FPS, it gives a margin of error for feeding and it helps prevent battering with +P carry loads. It may not be popular, but I'll keep doing what's worked for me for 30 years, and use these in all my .45 1911's.

New life to old pistol
My Colt Mark IV series 70 needed some maintenance. I did a trigger job to 3.5 lbs, custom Trijicon HD sights, and Wolff recoil & firing pin springs. The biggest bang for the buck were the springs. They installed in minutes. The recoil spring takes about 1/3 of felt recoil out, and because it returns so fast, I am able to get back on target faster, and my groups are much tighter. I would recommend this for anyone wanting to improve their 1911, new or vintage.
