Replacement Recoil Springs for a Glock 30S

[9mmepiphany]

I recently won a Glock 30S at a GSSF match. It has a captive recoil spring assembly.

I was wondering if anyone was aware of the availability of aftermarket springs, of different weights, to allow me to work up different loads for it

This is where I get all on my replacement springs from.

Thanks, I should have thought of Wolff first.

I just ordered the 15lb assembly...factory is 17lbs

Standard size gun spring for 1911 is 16lb factory for G30S is 17. Why did you choose 15lb? I want to learn something.

I just reread my OP and realized that I left out the objective of my project.

I'm looking to load 230gr bullets to come out of the G30 barrel at about 570fps.

I actually found recoil assemblies that went down to 12lbs (not at Wolff), but that seemed excessive

let us know how that 15 pounder works out. i have the spring kit for my g30 and use the 21 lb. spring for my 45 superish loads. but, i would like to load up some powder puff loads as well.

Here's a thread asking for load suggestions

thanks, i checked it out already. i was going to suggest bullseye for your reduced load, but i've never cooked up a reduced load in 45acp, yet. i currently shoot a full power ball load in my g30 and am anxiously awaiting your "powder puff" results.

9mmepiphany, I just received the new catalog from www.glockstore.com. Among other things, they have a large selection of recoil assembly related offerings that may interest you.

Enjoy!

Thank you.

While Lenny does offer a wide variety of springs for many Glock models, the only reduced weight offered for the 30S is 15lbs...which I already ordered from Wolff
