Title: Reduce CZ75D Compact Recoil Spring #
Post by: Coyote1092 on September 07, 2022, 07:27:15 PM

Hi All=
Due to increasing osteo-arthritis in hands, looking to reduce # on recoil spring to be able to rack the firearm more easily.  Can this be done and not affect recoil function?

Yep and generally you can tune the ejection distance with recoil springs.  It isn't as easy with the compact as the recoil springs are shorter than the standard variant.  You can pick up a reduced power spring from CGW:

Otherwise you could trim reduced power full length springs to fit but you you may end up too light and have to do some trial and error.

Cheers,
Toby

If this is for a home/range gun, you might also consider this:
