Kingmistry Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I was wondering if buying enhanced hammer + recoil springs (~150%) would increase the gas efficiency of my WE 1911 and if so, why? I understand that it causes a higher output of gas but I heard somewhere that it can increase gas efficiency, so I am looking for a confirmation and someone to explain. Also, are TM 1911 internal springs compatible with the We-tech 1911, because compatibility between the TM and WE 1911 isn't 100%. I am looking for a recoil and hammer spring set for We-tech but most of them I find just say that they are compatible with TM 1911, and I dont want to take the risk of buying it and wasting money if it doesn't fit. So to summarise the questions (in case it isn't clear): 1) Does improving the recoil and hammer springs improve gas efficiency, and if so, how? 2) Are TM and WE 1911 internal parts compatible (specifically Recoil + Hammer Spring ) Thanks P.S. On a side note, if someone does have any enhanced hammer + recoil springs that would work and they want to shift them, please contact me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingmistry Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 I'll simplify this since I can't get an answer: If I improve the hammer spring, will the gas efficiency improve? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
