sig 226 springs

[ginman]

Buying a used 226 with maybe 7k rounds through it. Im going to replace the recoil spring, but beyond that are there any recommendations on other springs I should switch out? Thanks!

Sig sells small parts kits for the 226 that are a pretty good value. I get the Mk25 kit because it also has new grip panels (just the basic grips, but nice to have spares). That will get a good set of springs and pins.

If you are in there, think about the short reset kit as well. It will get you a new sear too.

Did you check the wear on the rails before buying? https://www.sigtalk.com/threads/flor...ion-guide.131/

Recoil spring and the trigger bar spring are the 2 items that should be replaced, and you should keep some around as spare. I had a trigger bar spring break on my at the range. The gun became inoperable.

Wear items should be changed at the proper intervals. Duh.

Breech block pin is the only other thing of concern at that point.

If you want to be preemptive swap out your magazine springs and trigger bar spring.

Give it a deep clean, grease the rails, and go to town.

not sure you need to change the recoil spring have you tested it and used a scale?

i'm pretty strict about replacing the springs as well as lubricating the rails etc. I purchase mine from Grayguns.com. they've been awesome to deal with and periodically have some very nice sale promotions. worth a call

i replace mine every 5k as recommended so at 7k, it's time for a new one.

Guess I shoulda came here before I bought it. After my ten days it'll be the first thing I look at.
