[QUOTE="Buzzdraw, post: 915961, member: 385"] A recoil spring in the 11-14# range should be good for a 5" 1911 9mm. The guys that get into trouble with blown cases in a 9mm 1911 with a non-ramped barrel often have over-relieved the feed portion of the barrel. If a standard pressure 9mm factory round is bulging in the case head area, that's usually the cause. A non-ramp 9mm barrel, properly installed, will be perfectly safe firing factory pressure ammo. Best of luck finding a mag/bullet combo that will run 100% with the .45 ramp frame and non-ramp 9mm barrel. The FMJ suggestion is certainly a good one. [/QUOTE]
