The Wilson Combat 316G Complete Spring Set for 1911 full size steel pistols is a drop-in refresh for shooters who want factory-quality reliability and a smoother trigger without a gunsmith visit. Whether you're running a vintage gun that's seen hard use, setting up a new build, or just tired of mushy trigger breaks, this complete spring set gives you everything you need to restore your full-size 1911 to crisp, consistent performance.
Wilson Combat engineered this kit specifically for 5-inch Government-model 1911s, bundling every spring that matters: the recoil spring, hammer spring, firing pin spring, and all the smaller springs that keep your gun running tight. The recoil spring is rated to handle both standard and high-velocity loads, so you're covered whether you're shooting target rounds or hot handloads. The reduced-power hammer spring drops the trigger pull force needed to cycle the slide while preserving reliability—a real upgrade over many factory setups that feel heavy or gritty.
Each spring in this set is heat-treated music wire, built to the same standards Wilson Combat has used in custom guns for decades. That means consistent performance across thousands of rounds, not a one-and-done fix. Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable doing basic 1911 takedowns; no special tools or smithing skills required.
If your full-size Government-model 1911 shoots but doesn't feel like it should, or you're assembling a build and want a proven spring package, the 316G is the no-fuss answer. It's the kind of upgrade that whispers instead of shouts—you just notice your gun works better.

The 316G is designed for full-size Government-model 1911 steel pistols with a 5-inch barrel. If your 1911 is a compact, officer's, or non-standard variant, verify compatibility before ordering.
The 19# reduced-power hammer spring in this kit requires less finger pressure to cycle the slide and breaks the trigger more cleanly than heavier factory springs. It's still reliable but delivers a noticeably better shooting experience on the range or in defensive use.
Yes. The 18 1/2# recoil spring in the 316G is rated for both standard-velocity and high-velocity ammunition, so it handles handloads and +P rounds without issue.
