Just because you get a hammer spring with the recoil doesn't mean you have to use that one...I've found that with all of my upgraded Hicapa's (mostly Shooters Design upgrades - internals & externals) that I've used the Nineball hammer spring (red one sold individually) after testing all of the others.

Some things to consider:
- Are you using a Hiflow valve in the mag? Tanio Koba works best for me.
- Have you installed a suitable upgraded recoil spring for your slide? Believe me when I say that there is a difference between all of the manufacturers even though the package says 150%... I use King Arms (recoil only) in every one of mine.
- You had better have an assortment & selection of internal parts to interchange and test in any & every combination possible to get it tuned just right. What may work for one guy may not work for the next!
- You will get frustrated but don't give up...If all else fails try try again !!

Good luck!!!
