Wolff Government 1911 Hammer Spring – Mainspring 23 Pounds

Wolff Government 1911 Hammer Spring / Mainspring – 23 Pounds

The Wolff Government 1911 Hammer Spring / Mainspring – 23 Pounds restores your full-size 1911 to true factory performance. First and foremost, it delivers strong, consistent hammer tension. As a result, it keeps the trigger pull smooth, reliable, and predictable. Therefore, your pistol feels controlled, responsive, and precise every time you shoot. Whether you train at the range, compete, or carry for self-defense, this mainspring ensures your 1911 performs exactly as designed.

Factory-Correct Performance

Originally, Colt engineered Government-length 1911 pistols around a 23-pound mainspring. Consequently, this Wolff spring matches the original factory specification exactly. By restoring the correct spring weight, the hammer strikes with uniform force and the pistol cycles smoothly. In addition, the trigger pull remains balanced and consistent, closely replicating the feel of a new factory pistol.

Strong, Reliable Hammer Force

The mainspring installs inside the mainspring housing and directly controls hammer energy. Over time, however, worn springs can lead to light primer strikes, uneven cycling, or an inconsistent trigger feel. Installing this 23-pound Wolff mainspring corrects those issues. As a result, your 1911 delivers firm, reliable ignition and smooth operation with every shot.

Ideal for Repairs, Maintenance, and Builds

Wolff offers multiple mainspring weights for fine-tuning performance. However, the 23-pound version remains the best choice when you want:

• Factory-correct hammer tension

• Maximum ignition reliability

• Consistent performance across a wide range of ammunition

Furthermore, this spring works perfectly for replacing tired OEM parts during routine maintenance or for restoring a pistol to original factory specifications. In either case, installing this Wolff mainspring brings back the classic feel and dependable operation of a properly tuned Government 1911.

Durable Wolff Construction

Wolff manufactures each mainspring from premium, fatigue-resistant spring steel. Because this material resists spring set and deformation, it maintains proper tension through thousands of firing cycles. Therefore, your pistol continues to perform consistently over time. Additionally, precise spring engineering helps reduce unnecessary wear on other internal components, extending the overall service life of your 1911.
