ok what spring to put in my 10mm for DT ammo

[bigrich954rr]

i just brought a bunch of DT ammo the stock spring is 17 lbs right. Should i get a stronger one. what will a stronger one do EXC keep from the breaking the frame or make recoil hard or more prone to limp wristing or what looking for all ideas. and what weight should i get if i do go stronger yes its a glock 20

I too would like to know what spring, but more specifically for a Glock 29. Generally, 20-24 lb. springs seem to be the norm for 10mm. I run 22 and 23 lb. springs in my Witness 10mm and my Para-Ordnance P-16/10mm

I am using a THE s/s guiderod and ISMI 20-22 lb. springs in my G-20's.You can find them at Topglock.I still have the factory unit in my 29.

what affect did it have on the gun or benfits did it have

[10mm4ever]

By slowing down the slides rearward velocity,it takes some of the "snap" out.You should try it with both the factory unit,and then the after-market setup.Recoil is a very subjective thing,so trying it out yourself will be the best way to find out.Springs are relatively cheap,so order 2 or 3 different weights and experiment.

I suggest a Wolff 24lb. spring and a Wolff steel guide rod to use with it. With full power 10mm ammo(why would you want to shoot anything else) it has been my experience that at least a 24lb. spring is required. I say 24lb. because this is the strongest that Wolff makes. I would love to have a 28 or 30lb spring to try out. If anyone knows of any G20 springs greater than 24lb, please speak up! With full power 10mm (180gr@1350-1400fps, 4.6"bbl), the brass is still flung far and wide with a 24lb. If you reload, this is a bad thing as far as locating your fired brass is concerned. Ideally, the brass should barely limp out of the chamber, landing on the ground 2-3 feet to your right.

If you experiment, please post results!

I run 22 pound springs in both of my Smiths.

i use the 24lb spring in my G20. As to it's advantages, I can't really say for sure. It may keep the slide locked a split second longer which may be a good thing for hot ammo. I have zero evidence of this though.

i ordered a 20 and 22 lbs spring im going to see if i feel any diff in the two
