How exactly does the LBs affect the gun? Does higher LBs = lower recoil? Does higher LBs increase the risk of faluire to feeds or faluire to eject?

My question as well. Saw a youtube video with a different company and he stated it had more snap with the lighter spring but was able to set his follow up shot quicker. The heavier spring took longer to set up the next shot because the gun traveled slower in the recoil. My question still remains if there will be stove piping if I use lighter grade ammo with the heavier spring.

I carry mine daily. No,in my opinion the trigger pull poundage is reduced by about 3lbs. Still leaving it over 5lbs. The big difference is in the smoothness of the pull. The trigger take up distance is still adequate in my opinion.

My Shield had an 8 lb+ trigger pull and after installation it was about 5.5 lbs. I think because of the parts replaced, the final result should be the same no matter what the pull weight is at the start. I have limited experience with gun mechanics but I installed my own kit, albeit, slowly. You Tube has numerous videos of amateurs installing this kit - I watched several before I picked one... David's advice to check with a gunsmith is always good advice.

I really only have one thought, if it has the same trigger mechanism as my 308 it will reduce trigger pull to 3 to 4 pounds from the approx. 6 to 7. Just test rifle in accordance with instructions by bouncing it afterword's to assure the reduced pull is not so light the rifle will be able to fire if dropped. Might want to do it just before applying thread locker to assure spring stays in location.

not bad,on my 22 mk111,I had to reset after about 400 rounds.However,that gun has almost no recoil.

Recoil shouldn't be an issue, I swapped it on a 30-06 and it worked fine...I might be concerned about the eye relief if it were mounted too close to the stock on the shotgun though.

Hi this is Frank - You are not really going to notice a big difference with factory ammunition - I noticed a little difference with defense ammo - I upgraded both the spring & rod; more for ease of cleaning and just to know for myself what spring weight was in the gun

heavyer bullets makes the fps lower. its a science. (bbs may travel farther with more accuracy with heavyer bbs)

I shot 22 LR and they slightly bulged the target plates. AK 47 is much more powerful than a 22 and it will damage the target plates.

It should work. I noticed a 1/4- 1/3reduction in recoil firing standard 9mm. since the guide rod is skinnier the sprig wiggles around a bit. So when your racking the slide the spring will bump the underside of the locking block. I havent had any problems with it. but Ive only put about 150 rounds through my Taurus pt92

I do not know- However, I can tell you I have removed this from my Benelli M4 and will not be placing the device back on my gun. The device squeezes the magazine tube and causing the follower and shells to stop in the magazine at the mount site. This causes feeding malfunctions.

my opinion only I have used it on an ar 10 .308/7.62x51 nato that weighs 14 lbs. as a duck hunter im going to say if you use 3.5 inch 12 gauge magnums in an 8 lb. gun that has far more recoil than a 308 rifle this is my answer, have it laser boresighted and use it only when that big tom steps out for shot upon shot over and over no.

The product description states it will. I have a SD40VE with the 20 lbs spring and I absolutely recommend it! Made as well as my M&P; 40's stainless guild rod. I picked the higher 20 lbs spring rate and I have had no ejection malfunctions( with .40 s&w;, ranging from 60 to 180 gr ammo). My perceived recoil is better, smoother feeling.

Depends on a lot of variables. Your load, caliber and how your want the gun to recoil and cycle.

I installed the AccuStrut on a Mini 14 Ranch Rifle that I had customized with a tactical stock, a custom 3.5 pound trigger, scope, and sling. Considering the mod's I made to the rifle I am not sure if the barrel is more stable due to the strut, but it does add to the "cool" factor. I think that the faster your trigger finger and higher number of rounds through the barrel makes it more susceptible to movement so I am keeping the strut. For the enthusiast that shoots a magazine and puts the rifle away it would not be necessary.

Yes it will, the original spring I think was a 9 lb and this one is a 13 lb. but this spring does help with recoil.

It depends on the type gun and the caliber. I purchased this item for my Para Expert 45acp, and I could see immediate improvements of recoil and performance. It did reduce the recoil and it was on target about 99% of the time. I love it.
