"GT's Range Test
Well, just got back for the range where I tested qty. 2 of the new GTS/T-6 & qty. 1 of the GTS/T-4 versions... They all worked flawlessly on my byf test frame!!!! ... Yeah Team!!... Now, I did have an owners frame for one of the 6 inch versions, and, with that frame, it wouldn't always close?... So, I swapped out the mainspring, original DWM, with the longer, and seemingly stronger Mauser spring out of my test byf, and problem solved.... All good!"

I have not had the time to shoot my Navy GTS/T-6. My local range has been flooded. Nor have I had the time to take down the pistol to count mainspring coils or mic the wire diameter. Until I get to strip the Navy GTS/T-6 I hope GT's comments help.

Have a most excellent day,
Dick

On testing all, I used a standard WW2 Mauser 22 coil byf 9mm factory spring... It had about 4K rounds on it, and when I range tested Dick H.'s GTS/T-6, I ended up installing that exact spring in his frame, as I knew it worked with all the others, and it work with his as well.... (prior to that it wouldn't always close completely... It's a real balancing act when the barrels get fat!?.... ... Best to all, til....lat'r..... GT
