Default Compact Reduced Recoil Spring Help Needed

Hi All,

I need help finding a reduced recoil spring, preferably 13 lb, that will fit in a compact M&P 9c. This is used as a competition gun and the stock spring does not properly cycle light loads.

I have looked without any success yet, so looking for some direction. Is there possibly another brand that has the same size recoil system whose spring I can use? For example, I know the aftermarket ISMI springs for Glocks work in the Pro. *sorry for the defamatory remark, at least now that Glock part gets some use in a proper gun.

Thanks for the help!

If you cannot find one you might want to see if you can get a stock replacement spring and cut it down. Spring pressure is partly a function of the number of coils in a given length.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that a while back with an aftermarket spring without much success. At first it was very tight, then got too loose one ring later.

Anyone have any other suggestions or seen an aftermarket part? Open to other brand parts as long as they work.
