RECOIL SPRING KMR 5″ HARD (13)

KMR Recoil Spring – 5″ Hard (13 lbs)

The KMR 13 lb “Hard” Recoil Spring is a heavy-duty performance component specifically engineered for 5-inch long-slide KMR pistols. This spring is designed to provide maximum control and structural protection for shooters using high-power ammunition or those who prefer a more authoritative cycling action.

Maximum Stability for Long-Slide Platforms

Longer slides possess more reciprocating mass, which can lead to increased frame wear when using standard or light springs with hot loads. The “Hard” 13 lb spring counteracts this by providing a firmer resistance during the recoil stroke. This significantly reduces the shock transferred to the frame and slide stop, extending the longevity of your competition or duty pistol.

Technical Specifications:

• 13 lb Tension Rating: Classified as “Hard,” providing maximum resistance and a strong forward return force.
• 5″ Optimized Fitment: Tailored for the specific travel length and spring channel dimensions of KMR 5-inch models like the Orca and Emiq.
• Premium Spring Alloy: Manufactured from high-tensile steel to maintain its 13 lb rating over thousands of compression cycles without sagging.
• Increased Feed Reliability: The extra tension ensures that the slide strips rounds from the magazine and locks into battery with total certainty, even when the firearm is fouled with carbon.

Key Benefits:

• Frame Longevity: Acts as a robust buffer, preventing the slide from “bottoming out” against the frame during high-pressure cycles.
• Optimized for Major Power Factor: The ideal choice for IPSC Standard or Open division shooters using high-velocity loads.
• Authoritative Cycling: Provides a distinct, tactile feel to the slide’s movement, preferred by shooters who want a very positive and fast return to battery.

Note: For the best results, ensure your ammunition has sufficient pressure to fully cycle a 13 lb spring to prevent short-stroking malfunctions.
