Just remember the "tape test" is not scientific- it will only give you an indication of the action of your particular pistol. If the toggle "cuts" through the tape, you may have a weak mainspring(or an ill fitted rear toggle, or over pressure ammo, or ....)- that is just about all the tape test will tell you. JMHO.
