I don't know much about 1911s, but my Randall was made in the 80s and, most likely, has all original parts. The recoil when I shoot it feels pretty heavy, and the slide is pretty easy to rack. Should I replace the recoil spring? Does anyone have a link to a compatible spring to buy? Last time I took it out shooting, and cleaned it afterwards, I noticed that the recoil spring is not symmetrical, but I didn't remember which side pointed towards the front. Is it bad if I put it in backwards? Which way should it go?
Thanks.
