Wolff 22‑Pound Conventional 1911 Recoil Spring & Firing Pin Spring Set – Government
Maximum Slide Control for Heavy‑Duty Government‑Length 1911 Pistols
Keep your Government‑size 1911 running smooth, safe, and consistent with the Wolff 22 lb Conventional Recoil Spring & Extra‑Power Firing Pin Spring Set. From the first round to the last, this fixed‑rate spring set delivers firm slide control, reliable feeding, and dependable frame protection. As a result, your pistol maintains predictable performance even when running heavier loads.
Moreover, because Wolff engineers these springs to work together, you gain improved control and added safety in one proven upgrade.
Conventional Recoil Spring Design
Fixed‑Rate Pressure for Consistent Timing
Unlike variable‑rate springs, a conventional recoil spring applies the same resistance throughout the entire cycling process. Because of this steady pressure, the slide travels at a consistent speed. Consequently, timing remains stable while unnecessary wear is reduced.
In turn, your Government‑length 1911 feeds, extracts, and locks up the same way with every shot. Therefore, recoil feels more controlled, cycling stays predictable, and long‑term reliability improves.
Extra‑Power Firing Pin Spring
Added Safety Without Compromising Function
At the same time, Wolff includes an extra‑power firing pin spring to enhance overall safety. This stronger spring limits unwanted firing pin movement during recoil or impact. As a result, it helps lower the risk of inertial discharge while still maintaining reliable ignition.
Because both springs operate as a matched system, you benefit from improved safety, controlled slide movement, and dependable performance shot after shot.
Why Choose a 22‑Pound 1911 Recoil Spring?
Built for High‑Energy Loads and Firm Slide Resistance
When running hotter ammunition or pistols that require increased resistance, a 22 lb recoil spring delivers added control. For example, it provides:
-
Predictable slide speed
-
Consistent feeding and positive lockup
-
Reliable function with higher‑pressure ammunition
-
Reduced frame and slide impact
-
Simple tuning with steady, non‑variable spring pressure
Since the spring rate never changes, your pistol reacts the same way every time. Because of that consistency, recoil feels more manageable. In addition, sight recovery improves. Most importantly, your 1911 stays dependable under demanding conditions.
