Leen,

Welcome to the Forum, and congratulations on your Luger.

While it's a good idea to replace springs, be aware that there were different recoil springs (gauged by the number of turns of the spring) for Lugers of different generations. Generally there are fewer turns in the WW-I era pistols.

Since your gun is working fine with the loads you've selected, you may not need to immediately replace springs .

I have Wolff springs for my Luger and have had good experience with them.

Marc
