I want to order new recoil springs. Which ones do you recommend?

Kimber 5" pistols all use the same springs as the Colt 1911 Government 5" pistols.
- Factory recoil spring are the same as the Colt with .45 ACP using 16 pounds, Super .38/9mm using 14 pounds.
- Factory hammer spring (mainspring) is rated at 21 pounds.
- Magazine springs for the 7 & 8 rounds are the same as Colt.
- All other misc springs are the same as the Colt Government
Thank you. Any recommendations on spring weight change?

Unless you are shooting some hot reloads, 16 lbs is I've ever needed in my DW.
