Recoil spring tester is a simple testing device that helps you quickly measure the compression strength of any Government-length 1911 recoil spring. Lets you easily check if your gun’s spring is getting weak, and you can identify the weight of any unmarked springs you may have lying around. No more worries about damaging the gun with a weak spring or accidentally installing a soft spring when you want to shoot +P ammunition. Recoil spring tester is compact enough to take to the range; fits easily in tool box or shooting bag.
SPECS: Hard polymer with steel components. Instructions included. Measures springs up to 26 lbs. spring weight. 2 AAA batteries which are required, are not included.

Le testeur de ressort de recul est un appareil de test simple qui t'aide à mesurer rapidement la force de compression de n'importe quel ressort de recul de longueur gouvernementale 1911. Il te permet de vérifier facilement si le ressort de ton arme s'affaiblit, et tu peux identifier le poids de n'importe quel ressort non marqué que tu pourrais avoir. Fini les inquiétudes de endommager ton arme avec un ressort faible ou d'installer accidentellement un ressort trop souple quand tu veux tirer des munitions +P. Le testeur de ressort de recul est suffisamment compact pour l'emporter au stand ; il se glisse facilement dans une boîte à outils ou un sac de tir.
SPÉCIFICATIONS : Polycarbonate dur avec composants en acier. Instructions incluses. Mesure les ressorts jusqu'à 26 lbs. Les 2 piles AAA requises ne sont pas incluses.

Don't waste your money(12.09.2013)
Tester is only good to measure gov't model recoil spring tensions. There is only 1 witness mark to show 1.625" compression on the tube. Per Wolf Springs, spring commpression needs to be a mark at 1.625" for gov't models, another at 1.125" for commanders, and another at .700" for O.M.
If you try to use the current witness mark, a new 18# commander spring only weighs about 13#
Also the adapter is totaly useless. Instructions say test other springs (main / hammer springs) by pulling to current witness mark. The scale shows 6 brand new 23# hammer springs only weighing 12#
I called the manufacturer and explained the problems. I'm returning my unit
This may explain better what I'm talking about. http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/showthread.php?t=204458&highlight=recoil+spring+tester
Great Product, Helped me alot(26.11.2013)
This was a great help in sorting out my springs. When I needed to test main springs I determined the proper compressed length and put a piece of tape on the barrel using the 1.625 line as a reference. Worked Great. I even tested some Govt. Recoil springs that were brand new and they tested within 1/2 lb. of where they were supposed to be.
I do understand that this is not a super precision spring checker and if a person needs that kind of accuracy then a high dollar spring tool can be purchased from an industrial supply house. However, they are very pricey and usually run more that the cost of a new gun.
Simple and works well(27.10.2015)
I tested all my 1911 recoil springs, including spares, and all of the springs for my friend's 1911s in about two hours, including disassembly and reassembly.
Easy to use, repeatable, and you can read spring compression within a tenth of a pound.
I would recommend this product for its intended use ... Government-length recoil springs.
Good idea... but...(05.09.2016)
Good idea !
Easy to use and to determine the length to be measure for each pistol.
I checked different kind of recoil springs and systematically had a difference of approximately two to three pounds (less) when compared with supposedly Wolff calibrated springs or manufacture calibrated springs.
