I tend to agree with most of that...

I'm kind of a fan of the Colt Commanders though:) I prefer the standard 5" without a rail to all of them though. I agree in theory the heavier recoil spring batters the gun going back into battery but all things considered, you are picking up a fresh round, stripping it from the mag, pushing it and the barrel back up into lockup and the top bullet in the magazine is also somewhat putting the brakes on the slide. I think it's generally horse do-do but I'm just an amateur:) My only goal is reduce ejection velocity. Oh yeah...sometimes it's really weak going into lockup and needs to be helped along the last 1/16" or so during live fire. It's tight for a Sig but it just has every indication the spring is weak.
