    There can be slight issues with this though.

    If you have a light recoil spring a have a full power striker spring your trigger pull can actually pull the slide out of battery. Make sure that this doesn't happen after the spring switch.

    The recoil spring is holding the slide in battery. Your trigger pull is basically taking the striker spring from 90% cocked to 100%. When it pulls on the striker, it is pulling on the entire slide. If the recoil spring is too weak to hold the slide in place, the gun gets pulled out of battery. Best case scenario is that your gun wont fire, worst case (with a modified glock this is more likely to happen) your gun fires out of battery and bad things happen.

      2nd strike capability may not work with all ammo. My first pistol was a Walther P38, commercial varient(aluminum frame). I found with some surplus ammo, those with harder primers, DA shooting often would not set off the primers. Even with repeated strikes. However, when I cocked and fired it "single action" style, they would almost always fire.
      When shooting double action, the hammer doesn't go back quite as far as when one cocks it first(samething with DA revolvers). The longer hammer fall from the single action style was enough to set off the primers, even though the DA pull wouldn't do it.

        FNP 9mm, basically all the function of the HK USP at about 2/3 the price. I plan on picking up the non-roster FNX in either 9mm or 45 in the near future now that I'm out of CA.

            I think I've found the root cause of click-no bang.

            The main culprit was the use cheap Wolf ammo along with the ZEVII slider and the lighter springs. I ordered another brand of ammo and the result was no misfire. So I can go to a 5lbs spring (from 4 lbs) or use better ammo.
