springs for colt GCNM
I bought 1974 year Colt GCNM and was going to change out springs , recoil , mainspring , firing and use springs that I had on hand , but there seams to be a lot of difference in length,
Recoil spring is 5 to 6 coils short
mainspring is 4 coils short
and firing pin spring is short and weak
all thin compared to my 1976 colt government modle
don't see any at Brownells , what should I use ?

Brownells sells Wolff springs. Their recoil springs come with a firing pin spring. I use the standard springs, not the variable ones. Variable springs didn't work as well with wadcutter ammo in my guns.

Re: springs for colt GCNM
what would be correct weight spring for GCNM with clark scope base and a ultra dot 1 inch
I am guessing it would be almost same as my government model that I have built
with 1 inch ultra dot , 10# recoil , 19# mainspring, and the firing spring that came with the wolf spring.
guess I was thinking GCNM might be different because I never had a gold cup apart before.

Depends on your loads. I have 10# recoil and 18# main in my Springfield with slide mount 1" ultra dot.
