So there is a lot of margin to work with here. What is the factory recommended recoil spring weight for the 4.25 prodigy My friend runs a 12lb recoil in his for standard ball ammo 16lb in a 9mm is pretty stiff, unless you are running some major hot loads. We offer dpm recoil reduction systems specifically engineered for both the 4.25” and 5” springfield prodigy models. The ismi 12 lb flat wire prodigy recoil spring is the perfect factory replacement for your egw prodigy 4.25 guide rod kit
Ismi springs are typically made from silicone chrome instead of 150 year old music wire Every ismi spring is heat treated, shot peened & stress relieved to enhance durability, consistency and reliability. This recoil spring/guide rod kit from egw is designed for the springfield 1911 ds prodigy model pistol that utilizes a 4.25″ barrel I fitted a wilson combat bullet proof sear in mine for piece of mind, adjusted sear spring tension, and polished all of the trigger components This yielded a 4 pound trigger with a clean break and no over travel. The factory recoil spring rating for the commander super.38 & 9mm calibers is 16 pounds
I compared the stock springfield prodigy 4.25 recoil spring with a wolff commander 10 lb recoil spring and specs are below I also installed the commander spring in the prodigy and gun cycles fine with no binding.
