1911A1 is king. But, if you want to take some skin off a knuckle chamber a Kimber.

That spring is pretty damn stiff compared to my 1911 and I like em both.

hhmmmmm. Recoil springs are manufactured at various different spring rates for a variety of applications from very light for target loads to very strong for P++ loads....

Is your spring too stiff for what you are shooting ammo wise? Did you replace the factory spring with one stiffer for some reason?

You might invest in a selection of recoil springs after learning their proper application load wise......
