Wolff Recoil Calibration Pak – Reduced Power (Conventional) for 1911
Fine-tune your 1911 for light target and competition loads with the Wolff Reduced Power Recoil Calibration Pak. This complete spring kit gives you everything you need to achieve smoother cycling, more reliable feeding, and softer recoil—while also saving time and money.
Instead of purchasing individual recoil springs one at a time, this calibration pak lets you test multiple spring weights in one package. As a result, you can quickly dial in the correct setup for your specific ammunition. Moreover, the kit offers approximately 20% savings compared to buying springs separately.
Designed for Simple, Step-By-Step Tuning
To begin, install the strongest recoil spring included in the kit. Then, gradually work your way down in spring weight until your pistol cycles smoothly and locks back reliably with your chosen load. Because each spring offers predictable resistance, tuning becomes straightforward and repeatable.
At the same time, the included extra-power firing pin springs help maintain safe ignition timing, even when running lighter recoil springs. Therefore, you gain improved performance without compromising safety.
What’s Included
This reduced power calibration pak includes:
-
11 lb conventional recoil spring
-
12 lb conventional recoil spring
-
13 lb conventional recoil spring
-
14 lb conventional recoil spring
-
15 lb conventional recoil spring
-
(3) Extra-Power firing pin springs
Together, these components provide a complete and balanced recoil tuning solution for light-load 1911 setups.
Why Choose a Reduced Power Recoil Pak?
Reduced power recoil springs work especially well for shooters who run lower-energy ammunition. Consequently, they help the slide cycle fully without excess resistance. In addition, conventional recoil springs apply consistent pressure throughout the slide’s movement, which results in predictable timing and smoother operation.
This setup is ideal for:
-
Light target and competition loads
-
Reduced felt recoil
-
Faster sight recovery
-
Easier slide manipulation
-
Reliable cycling with low-energy ammo
Key Benefits
-
Saves money versus buying springs individually
-
Allows fast, precise recoil tuning
-
Improves feeding, lockup, and slide timing
-
Reduces muzzle dip and overall recoil impulse
-
Extra-power firing pin springs enhance safety
-

-
Delivers long service life and consistent performance
Because Wolff controls material quality and spring rates tightly, you can rely on repeatable results every time you change loads or tune a new pistol.
Recommended Use
For best performance, Wolff recommends replacing recoil springs every 5,000–10,000 rounds. Additionally, always match your recoil spring weight to your ammunition and shooting style. Installation uses standard 1911 slide disassembly, so no special tools are required.
