Got a Springfield loaded a few years ago. Had a local smith do the trigger and swap the main spring housing to get rid of the lock ********. Has a beautiful 3.5lb break now with almost zero creep or overtravel. I absolutely love it.
What I want to change:
The guiderod is full length, which I like the idea of, but I hate that you need a allen wrench to disassemble the gun. Whats a high quality replacement that will drop in and allow stripping without tools??
I'm assuming now would also be a good time to change the recoil spring. Gun has 1500+/- rounds thru it. Its a 5" barrel and I've seen 15-19# springs recommended. Any input here? Brand and weight?
Also anything else I should replace as maintenance at 1500 rounds? Ive seen hammer spring mentioned but wasnt sure about that. Thanks
