[QUOTE="Dr. Barry Greyson, post: 1295841, member: 555"] ILS mainspring is 30lbs. Stock Colt is 23lbs. Recoil spring is 16lbs stock in Springfield and Colt(5") Titanium will work with stock FP spring but can contribute to light hits...Also, I would check it on a regular basis for distortion or "smearing", but replacement with tool steel is a better idea. Aluminum "fancy" triggers have a place the lighter the trigger pull you are going to use. I would replace the complete MSH and internals...ED Brown 25 lpi is a very nice part...the cost $55 for the part plus shipping, and MS plus internals $12-15. If you are not familiar with 1911 hammer and sear angles you have NO business stoning them ....you are responsible for any malfunctions and any injuries caused by unfamiliarity or incompetance. You would be better off using a drop in kit from a company like Cylinder & Slide that is pre set up. Barry [/QUOTE]
