Incredible job taking a confusing subject, often plagued by inaccurate information, and making the topic easy to understand. I now feel better equipped to tune my guns, thanks!

Appreciated this upload! Getting ready to assess my Obsidian 45 on some .45, 10mm and 9mm pistols. Springs will absolutely come into play. Thanks much

You're most welcome! I hope its helpful. I would be curious to hear what you find regarding spring weight as it relates to suppressor use. I have had a mixed bag of results myself. Some like lighter springs, some like heavier.

Loved the energy analysis! i think that it can take into consideration the energy lost as friction during the bullet's travel through the barrel, something that the more frequently encountered conservation of momentum analysis can not do.

At about 10:00 you're talking about longer springs, but did not mention the potential of spring binding.

Yeah that was just an example to illustrate the effects of preload. But you're correct. It's good to make sure when changing spring that your new one doesnt close at full compression/maximum slide travel.

Hello D , when tuning hammer fired guns ex czp09 .. please help explain how the hammer spring rate affects the initial barrel un lock and recoil impulse and muzzle flip ?
@dltz
Ай бұрын
A heavier hammer spring will require more force to initially push back down while the slide starts traveling rearward and the barrel is unlocking. It may increase force required for the action to unlock, but the recoil spring controls the relationship of the slide to barrel and the actual unlocking action. In terms of overall recoil impulse and muzzle flip it shouldn't have any affect becuase when the hammer is in the fully cocked position it puts very little upward force on the bottom of the slide as it passes over the top. I have heard wildly different ideas about how the mainspring affects recoil. I have heard that if you change recoil spring weight you should also change mainspring weight to keep the "overall spring force" and "timing" of the barrel unlocking the same. I have also heard that it doesn't matter at all. Select a main spring that gives you the trigger feel and reliability of ignition you want, and tune the recoil spring based on ejection distance and feel. In my experience I agree more with the second idea. I put in whatever mainspring I want for my desired trigger action, then tune the recoil spring to my normal ammo and the ejection distance I want. I don't worry at all or consider how the mainspring affects my recoil impulse, the barrel unlocking, or ejection pattern. Great question! I'm no expert and thats just my thoughts based on my experience. Hope it helps! Here is a link to my favorite recoil spring tuning guide: cajungunworks.com/how-to-select-the-proper-recoil-spring/

I wonder if anyone has an actual data calculator for determining spring weight or load based on each factor input ie: slide weight w/optic, barrel weight, load, comp, suppressor, etc...?

I wouldn't be surprised if someone has tried. That would be quite the undertaking. It would have to be unique to each gun as well as ammo types/loadings, etc. Two tilting barrel action pistols with the same slide mass may respond differently to recoil spring changes because of small differences like how far the barrel travels to unlock the action. I think it would have to be developed empirically. Someone has a gun set up a certain way and they report what spring works best for their setup. But then again what spring "works best" comes with a good deal of subjectivity. I may prefer my cases to eject 6 ft away while someone else thinks 3 ft away is good. Good question and good food for thought. I think it may be the most value to understand the basics of the pistol recoil spring system and see what you observe with your own setup then be able to say "its behaving in this way so I need a heavier spring."

@dltz Yes, it's always best to understand at least the basic concepts of what is going on with whatever it is you are doing. I was just curious if anyone actually has set up a simulation program for this application. The math is always constant, which is good. That's the foundation. Being able to measure the different parts accurately is the tricky part. Of course, the other things like air temp and altitude, surface friction (lubed or not, coating slickness), can have certain effects as well. A proper physics model would be cool to have, with different minor elements of the equation given a +/- margin of error factor if unknown or left out. In the meantime, it is easy enough to simply swap parts and have some fun trying the combinations out, or watch more of your videos. 👍

I have installed on my P10F Toni System 12 lb recoil spring end steel guide rod ( i guess the factory spring is 16lb) . It seems better shooter now (softer recoil). How do you see it in theory? Factory ammo S&B 124gr.

Lighter spring will increase slide velocity. I would expect ejection distance to increase. I would expect a little more snap as the slide comes rearward. The increased slide velocity means it will hit the rear of its travel harder, also leading to more muzzle flip. The slide will come back into battery softer with the lighter spring so I would expect less muzzle dip and a quicker return of the muzzle on target. There is a big part of recoil feel that is subjective. What feels better/softer to you may not to the next person. Thanks for watching and commenting!
