PN# 200710000 (currently all S&W PN# have 9 digits)
is the same as the 4506 (5" bbl.) "wadcutter" recoil spring (??#).

PN# 060480000 (the leading zero is significant)
is the standard 5906 (4" bbl) recoil spring, 14#

Can you explain what you mean by a "long" & "short" guide rod?

Also, what are PN#s 24298(0000) & 24917(0000)? They don't appear in the S&W Parts Catalog.

. . . . .

Wouldn't a Super 9 equipped with a 356TSW barrel have needed a heavier recoil spring for it?

In my "unscientific home" test a factory recoil spring in my 3566 Limited (5" bbl.) was equivalent to Wolff's 15# 4506 recoil spring (#47315).

A 5906 recoil spring (#060480000) in it has significantly less measured force (4#s).
