You adjust recoil springs to tune how the gun returns after firing.
Go put the money you’d put into accessorizing into a pistol class and learn to use the thing.
That's exactly how it works.
Putting a stiffer spring in affects it both ways
Im aware. Muzzle flip, recoil whatever it is it has a very sharp upwards pull. I asked for recommendations on parts. I wanted to get a new spring for starters and was asking about anything else that might help that. The laser/light is the only "because i want one" thing
You bought a gun that no one makes parts for tho
The guide rod + spring is always a noticeable improvement
That would be your own damn fault
Oof
Theres plenty of aftermarket parts for it what the hell are you talking about
And I’ve never found a gun where going to a heavier recoil spring was of much value
There's a ton of aftermarket on Ruger
I bought it because i liked it better than the Glock 19
And they're similar size
Then why are you asking here vs going on google?
You can get that spring in like 5 different weights
Just get the Galloway kit
Comes assembled with a steel guide rod
I see SR9 parts
Not security 9
Because google doesnt give many reviews or opinions on any of the parts whereas maybe people who actually shoot guns (maybe, its debateable with how little talk there is of actually shooting here) would be able to tell me anything to get/stay away from
Never mind
If you're just going to be a smug faggot with 0 input besides "no" then why would you even bother posting

I mean, I actually shoot guns. Probably more than most folks here combined.
And have done my own experimentation with recoil springs. But usually the opposite direction.
I care about how the gun returns to zero, not how it feels in the hand
(Feels in the hand meaning snappiness)
Yes give me *lighter* springs fam. I want my fuckin gun to bottom out lol
When i shoot the gun pops up considerably, i want to reduce that
"Thats not recoil go spend money on a class instead"
And almost all guns bottom out
@Asotil I’m telling you that you’re not gonna do much about that. That’s a technique issue. Grip strength and wrist strength.
How it feels in the hand is fine, i just have large hands and said maybe the +2 would help with the extra inch or so added to the grip from the magazine
The extension would probably help, yes
Some manufacturers make solid extensions that don’t add capacity.
My technique is fine. I have no problems with my 357 or any other handguns ive shot
Ita just light and therefore moves more
Theres less to absorb the recoil
You are welcome to ignore what I have to say, no worries. But you may be wrong.
Good luck.
