I was considering buying a SS recoil spring for my g17 gen4. Was wondering if anyone has purchased one and has any range feedback on it. Also which maker is the best and cheapest. Any responses would be great. Thanks

personally I think the factory is best for that model. JMO

I put one (dual spring) in my gen4 G19 & (for me) it made no difference in any way. I replaced the guide rod springs in ANOTHER handgun (a Ruger LC-9) from 16lb to 20lb & from plastic guide rod to SS & it made a HUGE difference. I'm sure it was in changing from 16-20lb springs. I immediately had more control & better grouping, but was ALSO shooting 147gr vs. 115gr... I believe if Glock engineers thought there was s big advantage, they'd use SS. Only my opinion, no true evidence on my behalf. Like so many topics, many will say their experiences have been different than mine...
