Hey everyone,
I don't know if I'm having an issue or not. I recently purchased a Gen 4 G23 as my first duty weapon. I love it but am concerned about some movement thats going on with the recoil spring after I reassemble the pistol and rack the slide. When I assemble the weapon, I make sure that the recoil spring is seated all the way down into the half moon groove. If I rack the slide or fire the weapon and take it down again, I see that the base of the spring has moved upwards, barely, and I mean barely, hanging onto the edge of the half moon groove. Is this normal? I've put about 800 rounds through the weapon without any problems but I just want to know if anyone else has noticed this or had any problems with it.
I've heard people say its a non issue and that the half moon groove is just for assembly purposes but it concerns me that it is just barely hanging onto the top edge of the half moon groove. It just doesn't look right to me. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
