If you have a large hand, it may be a little tough to squeeze the safety to its limit, not because of the spring, but because of the shape of the grip vs. one's hand.
I use a bit of the fluffly side of a piece of velcro stuck to my grip safety on my shooter for this reason.
Don't waste your money stripping the pistol to find the markings!
They are quite likely long lost to the buffing wheel before plating.
I'd replace the spring, but not spend any more money trying to change it into something it is not.
Welcome to the board.

My hands are "largish" and I have no problems with the grip safety of my Portuguese M2, but I also shot some Portuguese Navy Lugers where it seems I could never get the safety lever bar completely down. Go figure.
By the way. The Luger (with or without grip safety) seems to have been designed for "largish hands". I know a lot of excellent shooters, a few much better than me, with smaller hands that were never able to master the Luger.
