I'm not sure why you are disagreeing, Richard, since you plainly state that you installed a 9mm spring, albeit "standard", in your convertible pistol. My concern is over firing 9mm loads, some perhaps hot, in a .30 cal. lower with the standard .30 cal. spring in it, which is what is being proposed.

Am I missing something?
